Transition to Psychosis: 6-Month follow-up of a Chinese High-Risk Group in Hong Kong
Objectives: The identification of individuals at high risk of becoming psychotic within the near future creates opportunities for early intervention before the onset of psychosis. This study sets out…
Risk factors for transition to first episode psychosis among individuals with ‘at-risk mental states’
Prediction of psychosis in youth at high clinical risk: a multisite longitudinal study in North America.
TLDR
These findings demonstrate that prospective ascertainment of individuals at risk for psychosis is feasible, with a level of predictive accuracy comparable to that in other areas of preventive medicine.
Research in people with psychosis risk syndrome: a review of the current evidence and future directions.
TLDR
The translation of the concept of a clinically identifiable PRS into clinical practice does not seem justified at this point, and results from intervention studies are encouraging, but are currently still insufficient to make treatment recommendations for this early, relatively non-specific illness phase.

Prediction of psychosis
TLDR
It is demonstrated that it is possible to identify individuals with a high likelihood of onset of psychosis within a brief follow-up period, which lays the foundation for early treatment in an attempt to prevent, delay or minimise the severity of first onset of schizophrenia.
Can we predict the onset of first‐episode psychosis in a high‐risk group?
TLDR
It is shown that it is possible to identify individuals who have a high likelihood of onset of psychosis within a brief follow-up period and that there are detectable mental state changes in this group prior to onset of schizophrenia-like psychoses.
The Initial Prodrome in Psychosis: Descriptive and Qualitative Aspects
  • A. Yung, P. McGorry
  • Psychology, Medicine
    The Australian and New Zealand journal of psychiatry
  • 1996
TLDR
The ground work has been laid for the development of better methodologies for assessing and measuring first psychotic prodromes with increased emphasis on experiential phenomena, which has the potential to lead to the early recognition and more accurate prediction of subsequent psychosis.
Duration of psychosis and outcome in first-episode schizophrenia.
TLDR
Duration of psychosis before treatment may be an important predictor of outcome in first-episode schizophrenia, and is significantly associated with time to remission as well as with level of remission.
Diagnosing schizophrenia in the initial prodromal phase
Establishing the onset of psychotic illness.
TLDR
A method for dating the first appearance of prodromal signs of psychotic illness, the emergence of an acute episode, and the initiation of treatment seeking is described.

The Pace Clinic: Development of a Clinical Service for Young People at High Risk of Psychosis
TLDR
The Pace Clinic has a potentially important role in research into the aetiology of psychotic disorders, the process of transition from prodromal state to psychosis, and in the development of preventative strategies in psychosis.
The prodromal phase of first-episode psychosis: past and current conceptualizations.
TLDR
This article proposes an alternative model for conceptualizing prodromal changes (the hybrid/interactive model) and discusses the different ways to view this phase of first-episode psychosis.
Premorbid Social Underachievement in Schizophrenia
TLDR
Schizophrenic patients who failed to achieve their fathers' social status had poorer educational qualifications than those who equalled or bettered their paternal social class, despite similar premorbid IQ scores and age at onset of psychosis.
