Differential Diagnosis

Schizoaffective vs. Schizophrenia

Criterion C of Schizoaffective disorder is designed to separate it from schizophrenia (Symptoms that meet criteria for a major mood disorder are present for the majority of the total duration of the active and residual portions of the illness) and criterion B is designed to distinguish it from a depressive or bipolar disorder w/ psychotic features (presence of prominent delusions and/or hallucinations for at least 2 weeks in the absence of a major mood episode).
