This study examines the speech abnormalities in terms of types and conditions in adult male schizophrenic, as reflected by the main character in Lost Transmission movie. However, in this study, the data analysis of speech abnormalities was used based on the instrument of the Thought and Language Index to examine the types of language abnormalities, and this study employed the Thought, Language, and Communication scale in scrutinizing the conditions of speech abnormality occurrence.

Additionally, this study discovered that speech abnormalities often occur for some possibilities, including delusions, hallucinations, thought disorders, and emotional instability.
