- The DSM- IV contains five sub-classifications of schizophrenia: Paranoid, disorganized, catatonic, undifferentiated and residual type, but, this classification has been eliminated due to their limited diagnostic stability, low reliability and poor validity.
- There is no established system for the classification of schizophrenia as per the diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders, Fifth Edition, (DSM-V)
- According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition, (DSM-V, to meet the criteria for diagnosis of schizophrenia, the patient must have experienced at least 2 (or more) of the following symptoms:

The symptoms are not attributable to any other psychiatric , medical or substance use disorder.
