Suggestion that allopsychic delusions are as a rule in some sense autopsychic. From Wordnik.com. [The Journal of Abnormal Psychology] Reference
Amidst the other alterations of personality found in paresis, autopsychic delusions are characteristic: indeed allopsychic delusions are conspicuously few in our series. From Wordnik.com. [The Journal of Abnormal Psychology] Reference
On the other hand, delusions respecting the environment (allopsychic delusions) had appeared to be more related to essential disorder of personality than to actual environmental factors. From Wordnik.com. [The Journal of Abnormal Psychology] Reference

The paper deals with delusions of a personal (autopsychic) nature and is one of a series based upon certain statistics of Danvers State Hospital cases (previous work published on somatic, environmental (allopsychic) delusions and those characteristic of General Paresis). From Wordnik.com. [The Journal of Abnormal Psychology] Reference
In a few cases it seemed that something like a close correlation did exist between such allopsychic delusions and the conditions which had surrounded the patient -- the delusory fears of insane merchants ran on commercial ruin, and certain women dealt in their delusions largely with domestic debâcles.
