Abstract

The mental state examination is unlike any other assessment in medicine. Karl Jaspers is largely attributed with describing the structure and method of its use. In the centenary year of Jaspers' seminal work General Psychopathology, psychiatry can celebrate the mental state examination as part of its rational and secular heritage.
