Valid criteria to identify young people who are believed to be at ultra high risk (UHR) of
developing a psychotic episode were developed over the last decade. The first randomized …

Objective: Cognitive therapy and/or low-dose antipsychotic administered during the
prodromal phase of schizophrenia may prevent or delay the onset of full-blown illness …

Objective: Intervention during the pre-psychotic period of illness holds the potential of
delaying or even preventing the onset of a full-threshold disorder, or at least of reducing the …

Objective: The ultra-high risk clinical phenotype is associated with substantial distress and
functional impairment and confers a greatly enhanced risk for transition to full-threshold …

BACKGROUND: Future success of early intervention initiatives to prevent the onset of
psychosis will rely on the validity of methods to predict clinical outcome. Proper identification …

Studies of individuals at ultra-high risk (UHR) for psychosis have mostly reported on long-
term outcome of those individuals who develop psychosis compared to those who do not …

The ultra-high risk (UHR) criteria were defined to identify young people at high and imminent
risk of developing a first episode of psychosis1. The criteria have now been in use …

Objective The validity of current ultra-high risk (UHR) criteria is under-examined in help-
seeking minors, particularly, in children below the age of 12 years. Thus, the present study …

As an extension of the early intervention in psychosis paradigm, different focused treatments
are now offered to individuals at ultra high risk of psychosis (UHR) to prevent transition to …

Criteria for identifying individuals at imminent risk for onset of a psychotic disorder, that is
“prodromal” for psychosis, have recently been described. The current study set out to test the …
