I think the idea is that "positive symptoms" are those obvious, blatantly psychotic signs of schizophrenia. The "negative symptoms" tend to be more nuanced and less psychotic than crippling (extreme isolation, poverty of thought). Some researchers are expanding this into analyzing bipolar psychosis and bipolar disorder in general, since docs now think the two disorders (shizophrenia and bipolar) have significant overlap (which would explain schizoaffective disorder).
