Background Recent cross-sectional studies have shown psychotic experiences (PEs) are associated with suicidal ideation and behaviours. We aimed to examine associations between psychotic experiences (including persistent PE), and contemporaneous and incident non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) and suicide attempts. Method Participants were from an Australian longitudinal cohort of 1896 adolescents (12–17 years). NSSI and suicide attempts were measured using the Self-Harm Behaviour Questionnaire… 
Mediators of the association between psychotic experiences and future non-suicidal self-injury and suicide attempts: results from a three-wave, prospective adolescent cohort study
TLDR
Auditory HEs were indirectly associated with future NSSI and suicide attempts via recent traumatic life events, high psychological distress, and low self-esteem, across three waves of data, highlighting the importance of screening for auditory HEs when assessing a young person's self-harm/suicide risk.
The interplay between childhood trauma, cognitive biases, psychotic-like experiences and depression and their additive impact on predicting lifetime suicidal behavior in young adults
TLDR
Investigating the interplay between childhood trauma, cognitive biases, psychotic-like experiences (PLEs) and depression in predicting suicidal behaviors in a non-clinical sample of young adults revealed that PLEs, depression and cognitive biases are significant mediators of the relationship between trauma and suicidal behaviors.
Social and psychological contributions to the co-occurrence of sub-threshold psychotic experiences and suicidal behavior
TLDR
The results suggest that the robust associations between psychotic experiences and suicidal behavior demonstrated in past studies may be primarily explained by shared risk factors, rather than by causal relations.
Association of Psychotic Experiences With Subsequent Risk of Suicidal Ideation, Suicide Attempts, and Suicide Deaths: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Longitudinal Population Studies
TLDR
Individuals with psychotic experiences are at increased risk of suicidal ideation, suicide attempts, and suicide death and are important clinical markers for future suicidal behavior.
The subjective perception of the association between psychotic experiences and suicidal behavior among young adults.
TLDR
Findings are generally inconsistent with the hypothesis that psychotic experiences are directly related to suicidal behavior, but are consistent with the alternative hypothesis that both psychotic experiences and suicidal behavior are indicators of common underlying factors such as general psychological distress.

Research has produced inconsistent results with respect to whether the association between psychotic experiences and suicidal behavior is independent of co-occurring clinical and socioenvironmental
The Long-Term Relationship Between Psychological Resilience, Psychosis, Distress, and Suicidal Thoughts and Behaviors
TLDR
Over time, defeat/entrapment predicted suicidal thoughts and behaviors when the severity of psychosis and the associated distress were moderate and high, and resilience was lowest.

Psychotic experiences in a mental health clinic sample: implications for suicidality, multimorbidity and functioning
TLDR
Investigation in a clinical sample of adolescents referred to a state-funded mental health service found psychotic experiences are an important but under-recognized marker of risk for severe psychopathology, including multimorbidity, poor functioning and suicidal behaviour in young people who present to mental health services.
Psychotic symptoms in adolescence index risk for suicidal behavior: findings from 2 population-based case-control clinical interview studies.
TLDR
Assessment of psychotic symptoms should form a key part of suicide risk assessment in the general adolescent population and in adolescents with (nonpsychotic) psychiatric disorder.
Impact of psychological trauma on the development of psychotic symptoms: relationship with psychosis proneness
TLDR
Exposure to psychological trauma may increase the risk of psychotic symptoms in people vulnerable to psychosis.
Clinicopathological significance of psychotic experiences in non-psychotic young people: evidence from four population-based studies
TLDR
Investigating the relationship between psychotic symptoms and non-psychotic psychopathology in community samples of adolescents in terms of prevalence, co-occurring disorders, comorbid (multiple) psychopathology and variation across early v. middle adolescence found psychotic symptoms are important risk markers for a wide range of non- Psychotic psychopathological disorders.
Differences in Non-Suicidal Self-Injury and Suicide Attempts in Adolescents
TLDR
Adolescents in the NSSI group were found to have fewer depressive symptoms, lower suicidal ideation, and greater self-esteem and parental support than the group that also had attempted suicide.
Are screening instruments valid for psychotic-like experiences? A validation study of screening questions for psychotic-like experiences using in-depth clinical interview.
TLDR
The results suggest that it may be possible to screen the general adolescent population for psychotic-like experiences with a high degree of accuracy using a short self-report questionnaire.
Psychotic-like experiences in nonpsychotic help-seekers: associations with distress, depression, and disability.
TLDR
Bizarre Experiences and Persecutory Ideas may be more malignant forms of psychotic symptoms, as they are associated with current disability, and may confer increased risk of development of full-blown psychotic disorder.
Psychotic-like experiences and other antecedents of schizophrenia in children aged 9–12 years: a comparison of ethnic and migrant groups in the United Kingdom
TLDR
Prevalence of the putative antecedents of schizophrenia is greater among children of African-Caribbean origin living in the UK than among white British children, which parallels the increased incidence of schizophrenia and elevated prevalence of psychotic symptoms among adults ofAfrican-Cariberbean origin.
