This risk is even greater in those not taking antipsychotic medication. We examined whether negative appraisals of psychotic experiences and negative metacognitive beliefs about losing mental control mediated a relationship between psychotic symptoms and suicidal ideation in this group. Participants were diagnosed with schizophrenia-spectrum disorders, antipsychotic-free for 6 months at baseline, and were participating in an 18-month randomised controlled trial of cognitive therapy v. treatment as usual. We conducted a series of mediation analyses with bootstrapping on baseline (N=68), follow-up data (9-18 months; n=49), and longitudinal data (n=47). Concurrent general symptoms were directly associated with suicidal ideation at baseline, and concurrent negative symptoms were directly associated with suicidal ideation at 9-18 months. Concurrent positive, negative, general and overall symptoms were each indirectly associated with suicidal ideation via negative appraisals and/or negative metacognitive beliefs, at baseline and 9-18 months, except for negative symptoms at baseline. Controlling for baseline suicidal ideation and treatment allocation, baseline general symptoms were indirectly associated with later suicidal ideation, via baseline negative appraisals and negative metacognitive beliefs. Baseline negative metacognitive beliefs also had a direct association with later suicidal ideation. These findings suggest the clinical assessment of suicidal ideation in psychosis may be enhanced by considering metacognitive beliefs about the probability and consequences of losing mental control.Keywords: Psychosis, schizophrenia, suicide, antipsychotic medication, appraisals, metacognitive beliefsWord Count:Abstract: 236Main text (including acknowledgements and figure legends): 3738 Total word count: 3974IntroductionEstimates of suicide rates among individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia spectrum disorders range from 5 to 10 percent, making it a leading cause of premature death in this population.ADDIN CSL_CITATION {"citationItems":[{"id":"ITEM-1","itemData":{"DOI":"10.1093/schbul/16.4.571","ISSN":"05867614","PMID":"2077636","abstract":"Suicide rates among schizophrenic individuals are disturbingly high. At present, suicide is the number one cause of premature death among schizophrenics, with 10 to 13 percent killing themselves. Recent studies place the risk of suicide for persons with schizophrenia at a level comparable to that for persons with affective disorder. Depression, especially the symptom of self-reported or perceived hopelessness, is an important comorbidity factor in assessing this risk. Young white schizophrenic men with high levels of premorbid functioning and high expectations are at particularly high risk. Schizophrenic women, unlike women in the general population, behave more like men when it comes to choosing suicide. This article reviews recent studies reporting suicide rates and risk factors for suicide among schizophrenic patients. Current issues concerning the prediction, prevention, and treatment of suicidality among persons with schizophrenia are also discussed.","author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Caldwell","given":"Constance B.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Gottesman","given":"Irving I.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""}],"container-title":"Schizophr Bull","id":"ITEM-1","issue":"4","issued":{"date-parts":[["1990"]]},"page":"571-589","title":"Schizophrenics Kill Themselves Too: A Review of Risk Factors for Suicide","type":"article-journal","volume":"16"},"uris":[""]},{"id":"ITEM-2","itemData":{"DOI":"10.1001/archpsyc.62.3.247","ISBN":"0003-990X","ISSN":"0003-990X","PMID":"15753237","abstract":"BACKGROUND: The psychiatry literature routinely quotes a lifetime schizophrenia suicide prevalence of 10% based on 1 meta-analysis and 2 studies of chronic schizophrenics. OBJECTIVES: To build a methodology for extrapolating lifetime suicide prevalence estimates from published cohorts and to apply this approach to studies that meet inclusion criteria. DATA SOURCES: We began with a MEDLINE search (1966-present) for articles that observed cohorts of schizophrenic patients. Exhaustive bibliography searching of each identified article brought the total number of articles reviewed to 632. STUDY SELECTION: Studies included in the meta-analysis observed a cohort of schizophrenic patients for at least 2 years, with at least 90% follow-up, and reported suicides. Articles are excluded for systematic age bias (ie, adolescents). DATA EXTRACTION: Extracted data included sample size, number of deaths, number of suicides, percentage of follow-up, and diagnostic system used. Data were extracted independently by 2 of us, and differences were resolved by consensus after re-review. DATA SYNTHESIS: Studies were divided into 2 groups: 32 studies of schizophrenics enrolled at various illness points (25 578 subjects) and 29 studies of schizophrenics identified at either illness onset or first admission (22 598 subjects). Regression models of the intersection of proportionate mortality (the percentage of the dead who died by suicide) and case fatality (the percentage of the total sample who died by suicide) were used to calculate suicide risk in each group. The estimate of lifetime suicide prevalence in those observed from first admission or illness onset was 5.6% (95% confidence interval, 3.7%-8.5%). Mixed samples showed a rate of 1.8% (95% confidence interval, 1.4%-2.3%). Case fatality rates showed no significant differences when studies of patients diagnosed with the use of newer systems were compared with studies of patients diagnosed under older criteria. CONCLUSION: This study estimates that 4.9% of schizophrenics will commit suicide during their lifetimes, usually near illness onset.","author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Palmer","given":"Brian a","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Pankratz","given":"V Shane","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Bostwick","given":"John Michael","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""}],"container-title":"Archives of general psychiatry","id":"ITEM-2","issue":"3","issued":{"date-parts":[["2005"]]},"page":"247-253","title":"The lifetime risk of suicide in schizophrenia: a reexamination.","type":"article-journal","volume":"62"},"uris":[""]},{"id":"ITEM-3","itemData":{"DOI":"10.1192/bjp.187.1.9","ISBN":"9781847471","ISSN":"0007-1250","PMID":"15994566","abstract":"BACKGROUND: Suicide risk is greatly increased in schizophrenia.

We aimed to integrate the available evidence to create hierarchies of the comparative efficacy, risk of all-cause discontinuation, and major side-effects of antipsychotic drugs. Methods: We did a Bayesian-framework, multiple-treatments meta-analysis (which uses both direct and indirect comparisons) of randomised controlled trials to compare 15 antipsychotic drugs and placebo in the acute treatment of schizophrenia. We searched the Cochrane Schizophrenia Group's specialised register, Medline, Embase, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and for reports published up to Sept 1, 2012. Search results were supplemented by reports from the US Food and Drug Administration website and by data requested from pharmaceutical companies. Blinded, randomised controlled trials of patients with schizophrenia or related disorders were eligible. We excluded trials done in patients with predominant negative symptoms, concomitant medical illness, or treatment resistance, and those done in stable patients. Data for seven outcomes were independently extracted by two reviewers. The primary outcome was efficacy, as measured by mean overall change in symptoms. We also examined all-cause discontinuation, weight gain, extrapyramidal side-effects, prolactin increase, QTc prolongation, and sedation. Findings: We identified 212 suitable trials, with data for 43 049 participants. All drugs were significantly more effective than placebo.

Major theories have proposed several explanations to account for this association.

We searched PsycInfo, PubMed, and GoogleScholar for studies published before 1 January 2016. To be included in the analysis, studies must have used at least one psychosis-related factor to longitudinally predict suicide ideation, attempt, or death. The initial search yielded 2541 studies. Fifty studies were retained for analysis, yielding 128 statistical tests. Suicide death was the most commonly studied outcome (43.0%), followed by attempt (39.1%) and ideation (18.0%). The median follow-up length was 7.5 years. Overall, psychosis significantly conferred risk across three outcomes, with weighted mean ORs of 1.70 (1.39–2.08) for ideation, 1.36 (1.25–1.48) for attempt, and 1.40 (1.14–1.72) for death. Detailed analyses indicated that positive symptoms consistently conferred risk across outcomes; negative symptoms were not significantly associated with ideation, and were protective against death. Some small moderator effects were detected for sample characteristics. Psychosis is a significant risk factor for suicide ideation, attempt, and death. The finding that positive symptoms increased suicide risk and negative symptoms seemed to decrease risk sheds light on the potential mechanisms for the association between psychosis and suicidality. We note several limitations of the literature and offer suggestions for future directions.","author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Huang","given":"X.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Fox","given":"K.

RESULTS: Forty-one per cent of participants expressed current suicidal ideation. Suicidal ideation was associated with depressed mood, anxiety, low self-esteem, negative illness perceptions, negative evaluative beliefs about the self and others and daily alcohol consumption. Frequency of auditory hallucinations and preoccupation with delusions were not associated with suicidal ideation; however, positive symptom distress did relate to suicidal thoughts. CONCLUSION: Affective dysfunction, including distress in response to hallucinations and delusions, was a key factor associated with suicidal ideation in individuals with psychotic relapse. Suicidal ideation in psychosis appears to be an understandable, mood-driven process, rather than being of irrational or 'psychotic' origin.","author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Fialko","given":"L.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Freeman","given":"D.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Bebbington","given":"P.

METHOD: The international literature on case-control and cohort studies of patients with schizophrenia or related conditions in which suicide was reported as an outcome was systematically reviewed. Studies were identified through searching electronic databases and reference lists, and by consulting experts. RESULTS: Twenty-nine eligible studies were identified. Factors with robust evidence of increased risk of suicide were previous depressive disorders (OR=3.03, 95% CI 2.06-4.46), previous suicide attempts (OR=4.09, 95% CI 2.79-6.01), drug misuse (OR=3.21, 95% CI 1.99-5.17), agitation or motor restlessness (OR=2.61, 95% CI 1.54-4.41), fear of mental disintegration (OR=12.1, 95% CI 1.89-81.3), poor adherence to treatment (OR=3.75, 95% CI 2.20-6.37) and recent loss (OR=4.03, 95% CI 1.37-11.8). Reduced risk was associated with hallucinations (OR=0.50, 95% CI 0.35-0.71).

By sowing the seeds of doubt in a playful and entertaining fashion, the program targets positive symptoms, particularly delusions. It aims to raise patients' awareness for common cognitive traps or biases (e.g., jumping to conclusions, overconfidence in errors, bias against disconfirmatory evidence) that are implicated in the formation and maintenance of psychosis. The majority of studies confirm that MCT meets its core aim, the reduction of delusions. Problems (e.g., potential allegiance effects) and knowledge gaps (i.e., outcome predictors) are highlighted.

The Author 2015. Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Maryland Psychiatric Research Center. We did a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the magnitude and specificity of the \"jumping to conclusions\" (JTC) bias in psychosis and delusions. We examined the extent to which people with psychosis, and people with delusions specifically, required less information before making decisions. We examined (1) the average amount of information required to make a decision and (2) numbers who demonstrated an extreme JTC bias, as assessed by the \"beads task.\" We compared people with psychosis to people with and without nonpsychotic mental health problems, and people with psychosis with and without delusions. We examined whether reduced data-gathering was associated with increased delusion severity. We identified 55 relevant studies, and acquired previously unpublished data from 16 authors. People with psychosis required significantly less information to make decisions than healthy individuals (k = 33, N = 1935, g = -0.53, 95% CI -0.69, -0.36) and those with nonpsychotic mental health problems (k = 13, N = 667, g = -0.58, 95% CI -0.80, -0.35). The odds of extreme responding in psychosis were between 4 and 6 times higher than the odds of extreme responding by healthy participants and participants with nonpsychotic mental health problems. The JTC bias was linked to a greater probability of delusion occurrence in psychosis (k = 14, N = 770, OR 1.52, 95% CI 1.12, 2.05). There was a trend-level inverse association between data-gathering and delusion severity (k = 18; N = 794; r = -.09, 95% CI -0.21, 0.03). Hence, nonaffective psychosis is characterized by a hasty decision-making style, which is linked to an increased probability of delusions.","author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Dudley","given":"R.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Taylor","given":"P.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Wickham","given":"S.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Hutton","given":"P.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""}],"container-title":"Schizophrenia Bulletin","id":"ITEM-2","issue":"3","issued":{"date-parts":[["2016"]]},"title":"Psychosis, delusions and the \"Jumping to Conclusions\" reasoning bias: A systematic review and meta-analysis","type":"article-journal","volume":"42"},"uris":[""]}],"mendeley":{"formattedCitation":"<sup>15,16</sup>","plainTextFormattedCitation":"15,16","previouslyFormattedCitation":"<sup>15,16</sup>"},"properties":{"noteIndex":0},"schema":""}15,16 (ii) concepts of self and others, including perceived self-integrationADDIN CSL_CITATION {"citationItems":[{"id":"ITEM-1","itemData":{"author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Lysaker","given":"P.H.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Lyskaker","given":"J.T.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""}],"id":"ITEM-1","issued":{"date-parts":[["2008"]]},"publisher":"Oxford University Press","publisher-place":"Oxford","title":"Schizophrenia and the Fate of the Self","type":"book"},"uris":[""]}],"mendeley":{"formattedCitation":"<sup>17</sup>","plainTextFormattedCitation":"17","previouslyFormattedCitation":"<sup>17</sup>"},"properties":{"noteIndex":0},"schema":""}17 and (iii) negative metacognitive beliefs about the controllability and danger of worry and rumination.ADDIN CSL_CITATION {"citationItems":[{"id":"ITEM-1","itemData":{"DOI":"10.1017/S1352465808004803","ISBN":"1352465808004","ISSN":"13524658","abstract":"The theory and principles of Meta cognitive therapy (MCT) are described and data supporting its effects are summarized.

The review followed guidance set-out in the PRISMA statement. Primary analyses compared summary effect sizes on each sub-scale of the Metacognitions Questionnaire (MCQ) for people with psychosis and non-psychiatric controls; and people with psychosis and people with emotional disorder. Eleven eligible studies were identified comprised of 568 psychosis participants, 212 emotional disorder participants and 776 non-psychiatric controls. Findings indicated that people with psychosis had higher scores on all sub-scales of the MCQ compared to non-psychiatric controls; and higher scores on the positive beliefs about worry sub-scale compared to people with emotional disorder. This suggests metacognitive beliefs may be associated with the presence of psychological disorder and distress in general, rather than specific diagnoses. Implications for models of psychosis and treatment are discussed.","author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Sellers","given":"Rachel","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Varese","given":"Filippo","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Wells","given":"Adrian","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Morrison","given":"Anthony P.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""}],"container-title":"Schizophrenia Research","id":"ITEM-2","issued":{"date-parts":[["2017"]]},"page":"75-84","title":"A meta-analysis of metacognitive beliefs as implicated in the self-regulatory executive function model in clinical psychosis","type":"article-journal","volume":"179"},"uris":[""]},{"id":"ITEM-3","itemData":{"DOI":"10.1007/s10608-014-9633-9","ISSN":"0147-5916","author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Austin","given":"Stephen F.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Mors","given":"Ole","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Nordentoft","given":"Merete","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Hjorth?j","given":"Carsten R.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Secher","given":"Rikke G.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Hesse","given":"Morten","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Hagen","given":"Roger","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Spada","given":"Marcantonio","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Wells","given":"Adrian","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""}],"container-title":"Cognitive Therapy and Research","id":"ITEM-3","issue":"1","issued":{"date-parts":[["2015","2","7"]]},"page":"61-69","publisher":"Springer US","title":"Schizophrenia and Metacognition: An Investigation of Course of Illness and Metacognitive Beliefs Within a First Episode Psychosis","type":"article-journal","volume":"39"},"uris":[""]},{"id":"ITEM-4","itemData":{"DOI":"10.1016/S0005-7967(02)00095-5","ISSN":"00057967","abstract":"This study tested the hypothesis that metacognitions are a general vulnerability factor for psychological disorder.

The results showed that psychotic patients who experience auditory hallucinations tended to exhibit higher levels of dysfunctional metacognitive beliefs than other patient groups, scoring significantly higher than at least two of the three control groups on positive beliefs about worry, negative beliefs about uncontrollability and danger, cognitive confidence and negative beliefs including superstition, punishment and responsibility.

The potential of MCT in treating psychosis has yet to be investigated. Aims: Our aim was to find out whether a short number of MCT sessions would be associated with clinically significant and sustained improvements in delusions, hallucinations, anxiety, depression and subjective recovery in patients with treatment-resistant long-standing psychosis. Method: Three consecutively referred patients, each with a diagnosis of paranoid schizophrenia and continuing symptoms, completed a series of multiple baseline assessments. Each then received between 11 and 13 sessions of MCT and completed regular assessments of progress, during therapy, post-therapy and at 3-month follow-up. Results: Two out of 3 participants achieved clinically significant reductions across a range of symptom-based outcomes at end-of-therapy. Improvement was sustained at 3-month follow-up for one participant. Conclusions: Our study demonstrates the feasibility of using MCT with people with medication-resistant psychosis.

Metacognitive therapy (MCT), which focuses on metacognitive mechanisms, has led to positive results in other disorders, but has yet to be evaluated in people with schizophrenia spectrum diagnoses. This study evaluates the feasibility of MCT for people with psychotic disorders. Methods Ten participants with schizophrenia spectrum disorders received up to 12 sessions of MCT in an open trial. Outcomes included psychiatric symptoms measured using the PANSS, at baseline, 9 months (end of treatment) and at 12 months (follow-up), as well as dimensions of hallucinations and delusions, emotional dysfunction, self-rated recovery, social functioning and metacognitive beliefs. Results T-tests and Wilcoxon's signed ranks tests revealed significant beneficial effects on several outcomes at end-of-treatment and follow-up. Cohen's d effect sizes were moderate to large (for PANSS total, d = 1.0 at end of treatment; d = 0.95 at follow-up). A response rate analysis found 50% and 40% of participants achieved at least a 25% reduction in PANSS total scores by end of therapy and follow-up, respectively. Exploratory analyses revealed that metacognitive beliefs significantly changed over treatment and follow-up periods. Limitations This study had no control group and was not randomised; therefore, it is likely that effect sizes were inflated.

Therefore we postulated that reducing worry with cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) would reduce persecutory delusions. Methods: For our two-arm, assessor-blinded, randomised controlled trial (Worry Intervention Trial [WIT]), we recruited patients aged 18-65 years with persistent persecutory delusions but non-affective psychosis from two centres: the Oxford Health National Health Service (NHS) Foundation Trust (Oxford, UK) and the Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust (Southampton, UK). The key inclusion criteria for participants were a score of at least 3 on the Psychotic Symptoms Rating Scale (PSYRATS) denoting a current persecutory delusion; that the delusion had persisted for at least 3 months; a clinical diagnosis of schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or delusional disorder; and a clinically significant level of worry. We randomly assigned (1:1) eligible patients, using a randomly permuted block procedure with variable block sizes and division by four strata, to either six sessions of worry-reduction CBT intervention done over 8 weeks added to standard care (the CBT-intervention group), or to standard care alone (the control group). The assessors were masked to patient allocations and did their assessments at week 0 (baseline), 8 weeks (end of treatment), and 24 weeks, follow-up. The primary outcomes were worry measured by the Penn State Worry Questionnaire (PSWQ) and delusions measured by the PSYRATS-delusion scale, we did the analyses in the intention-to-treat population, and also did a planned mediation analysis.

Using multiple variance analysis and logistic regression analysis based on single symptoms, for both suicidal and non-suicidal patients it was shown that a suicidality syndrome independent of the underlying illness can be delineated. In schizophrenia as well as in major affective disorders it was found that hopelessness, ruminative thinking, social withdrawal and lack of activity are core symptoms of this suicidal syndrome. The finding of a suicidality syndrome, not associated with a specific major affective disorder, indicates the need to identify this syndrome, which should be seen as an independent dimension and diagnosed separately, and not regarded merely as a secondary symptom of major psychiatric disorders, particularly affective disorders.","author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Ahrens","given":"B.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Linden","given":"M.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""}],"container-title":"Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica","id":"ITEM-1","issued":{"date-parts":[["1996"]]},"title":"Is there a suicidality syndrome independent of specific major psychiatric disorder?

Participants aged 16-65 years with schizophrenia spectrum disorders, who had chosen not to take antipsychotic drugs for psychosis, were randomly assigned (1:1), by a computerised system with permuted block sizes of four or six, to receive cognitive therapy plus treatment as usual, or treatment as usual alone. Randomisation was stratified by study site. Outcome assessors were masked to group allocation. Our primary outcome was total score on the positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS), which we assessed at baseline, and at months 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18.

Factors with robust evidence of increased risk of suicide were previous depressive disorders (OR=3.03, 95% CI 2.06-4.46), previous suicide attempts (OR=4.09, 95% CI 2.79-6.01), drug misuse (OR=3.21, 95% CI 1.99-5.17), agitation or motor restlessness (OR=2.61, 95% CI 1.54-4.41), fear of mental disintegration (OR=12.1, 95% CI 1.89-81.3), poor adherence to treatment (OR=3.75, 95% CI 2.20-6.37) and recent loss (OR=4.03, 95% CI 1.37-11.8). Reduced risk was associated with hallucinations (OR=0.50, 95% CI 0.35-0.71). CONCLUSIONS: Prevention of suicide in schizophrenia is likely to result from treatment of affective symptoms, improving adherence to treatment, and maintaining special vigilance in patients with risk factors, especially after losses.","author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Hawton","given":"Keith","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Sutton","given":"Lesley","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Haw","given":"Camilla","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Sinclair","given":"Julia","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Deeks","given":"Jonathan J","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""}],"container-title":"The British journal of psychiatry : the journal of mental science","id":"ITEM-1","issued":{"date-parts":[["2005"]]},"page":"9-20","title":"Schizophrenia and suicide: systematic review of risk factors.","type":"article-journal","volume":"187"},"uris":[""]}],"mendeley":{"formattedCitation":"<sup>3</sup>","plainTextFormattedCitation":"3","previouslyFormattedCitation":"<sup>3</sup>"},"properties":{"noteIndex":0},"schema":""}3 and we focused on those who have been antipsychotic-free for an extended period of time, because they are considered to be at particularly high risk of suicide.ADDIN CSL_CITATION {"citationItems":[{"id":"ITEM-1","itemData":{"DOI":"10.1136/bmj.38881.382755.2F","ISBN":"1756-1833","ISSN":"09598146","PMID":"16825203","abstract":"Objective To study the association between prescribed antipsychotic drugs and outcome in schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder in the community.\\nDesign Prospective cohort study using national central registers.\\nSetting Community care in Finland.\\nParticipants Nationwide cohort of 2230 consecutive adults hospitalised in Finland for the first time because of schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder, January 1995 to December 2001.\\nMain outcome measures Rates of discontinuation of drugs (all causes), rates of rehospitalisation, and mortality associated with monotherapy with the 10 most commonly used antipsychotic drugs.

The potential of MCT in treating psychosis has yet to be investigated. AIMS Our aim was to find out whether a short number of MCT sessions would be associated with clinically significant and sustained improvements in delusions, hallucinations, anxiety, depression and subjective recovery in patients with treatment-resistant long-standing psychosis. METHOD Three consecutively referred patients, each with a diagnosis of paranoid schizophrenia and continuing symptoms, completed a series of multiple baseline assessments. Each then received between 11 and 13 sessions of MCT and completed regular assessments of progress, during therapy, post-therapy and at 3-month follow-up. RESULTS Two out of 3 participants achieved clinically significant reductions across a range of symptom-based outcomes at end-of-therapy. Improvement was sustained at 3-month follow-up for one participant. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrates the feasibility of using MCT with people with medication-resistant psychosis. MCT was acceptable to the participants and associated with meaningful change. Some modifications may be required for this population, after which a controlled trial may be warranted.","author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Hutton","given":"Paul","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Morrison","given":"Anthony P.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Wardle","given":"Melissa","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Wells","given":"Adrian","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""}],"container-title":"Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapy","id":"ITEM-1","issue":"02","issued":{"date-parts":[["2014"]]},"page":"166-185","title":"Metacognitive Therapy in Treatment-Resistant Psychosis: A Multiple-Baseline Study","type":"article-journal","volume":"42"},"uris":[""]}],"mendeley":{"formattedCitation":"<sup>33</sup>","plainTextFormattedCitation":"33","previouslyFormattedCitation":"<sup>34</sup>"},"properties":{"noteIndex":0},"schema":""}33 but adapted to explain suicidality.

We aimed to establish whether cognitive therapy was effective in reducing psychiatric symptoms in people with schizophrenia spectrum disorders who had chosen not to take antipsychotic drugs.\\n\\nMETHODS: We did a single-blind randomised controlled trial at two UK centres between Feb 15, 2010, and May 30, 2013. Participants aged 16-65 years with schizophrenia spectrum disorders, who had chosen not to take antipsychotic drugs for psychosis, were randomly assigned (1:1), by a computerised system with permuted block sizes of four or six, to receive cognitive therapy plus treatment as usual, or treatment as usual alone. Randomisation was stratified by study site. Outcome assessors were masked to group allocation. Our primary outcome was total score on the positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS), which we assessed at baseline, and at months 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18.

Mean PANSS total scores were consistently lower in the cognitive therapy group than in the treatment as usual group, with an estimated between-group effect size of -6.52 (95% CI -10.79 to -2.25; p=0.003). We recorded eight serious adverse events: two in patients in the cognitive therapy group (one attempted overdose and one patient presenting risk to others, both after therapy), and six in those in the treatment as usual group (two deaths, both of which were deemed unrelated to trial participation or mental health; three compulsory admissions to hospital for treatment under the mental health act; and one attempted overdose).\\n\\nINTERPRETATION: Cognitive therapy significantly reduced psychiatric symptoms and seems to be a safe and acceptable alternative for people with schizophrenia spectrum disorders who have chosen not to take antipsychotic drugs.

Although those patients who accepted their diagnosis reported a lower perceived control over illness and an external locus of control, label acceptance was not associated with lowered depression, self-esteem or unemployment.

The sample was assessed at baseline and 6months using measures of at risk mental states, internalized stigma, depression and social anxiety. Results: The Personal Beliefs about Experiences Questionnaire was validated for use with an ARMS sample. Correlational analyses at baseline indicated significant relationships between internalized stigma and: (i) depression; (ii) social anxiety; (iii) distress associated with unusual psychological experiences; and (iv) suicidal thinking.

The Personal Beliefs about Experience Questionnaire (PBEQ) and Personal Beliefs about Illness Questionnaire (PBIllQ) are two widely used measures of these beliefs. It is currently uncertain how the items on these measures map onto different underlying factors. This study therefore aimed to test the factor structure of these two measures. Methods Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used to test three alternative, pre-specified, factor structures for the PBIllQ and PBEQ in a sample of individuals diagnosed with bipolar disorder (n = 202) and a sample of individuals with experien-ces of psychosis (n = 362). Associations with depressive symptoms were also examined. Result A three-factor structure was supported for both measures, which included Negative Expectations/Appraisals (NEA), Internal Shame/Defectiveness (ISD) and External Shame (ES) factors. The NEA and ISD subscales also had consistent independent associations with depressive symptoms. Conclusions The results suggest that the PBIllQ and PBEQ may capture three distinct sets of negative beliefs in individuals with psychosis or bipolar disorder and that these beliefs may have important consequences for subsequent difficulties in these populations such as depression. Both measures may be helpful in supporting assessment and formulation in clinical practice and in evaluating belief change in intervention trials.

We tested a model whereby, after controlling for participant differences in age, gender, years of education, group allocation (follow-up analysis only) and the point when suicidal ideation was assessed (follow-up analysis only), psychotic symptoms activate negative cognitive appraisals, which then activate negative metacognitive beliefs, which in turn activates greater suicidal ideation (Figure 1).

Childhood adversities and trauma are generally predictive of suicidality. However, the differential effects of adversity/trauma-domains and CHR-criteria, i.e. ultra-high risk and basic symptom criteria, on suicidality remain unclear. Furthermore, the underlying mechanisms and thus worthwhile targets for suicide-prevention are still poorly understood. Therefore, structural equation modeling was used to test theory-driven models in 73 CHR-patients. Mediators were psychological variables, i.e. beliefs about one’s own competencies as well as the controllability of events and coping styles. Additionally, symptomatic variables (depressiveness, basic symptoms, attenuated psychotic symptoms) were hypothesized to mediate the effect of psychological mediators on suicidality as the final outcome variable. Results showed two independent pathways. In the first pathway, emotional and sexual but not physical adversity/trauma was associated with suicidality, which was mediated by dysfunctional competence/control beliefs, a lack of positive coping strategies and depressiveness. In the second pathway, cognitive basic symptoms but not attenuated psychotic symptoms mediated the relationship between trauma/adversity and suicidality. CHR-patients are thus particularly prone to suicidality if adversity/trauma is followed by the development of depressiveness. Regarding the second pathway, this is the first study showing that adversity/trauma led to suicidality through an increased risk for psychosis as indicated by cognitive basic symptoms. As insight is generally associated with suicidality, this may explain why self-experienced basic symptoms increase the risk for it. Consequently, these mediators should be monitored regularly and targeted by integrated interventions as early as possible to enhance resilience against suicidality.","author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Schmidt","given":"Stefanie J.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Schultze-Lutter","given":"Frauke","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Bendall","given":"Sarah","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Groth","given":"Nicola","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Michel","given":"Chantal","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Inderbitzin","given":"Nadja","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Schimmelmann","given":"Benno G.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Hubl","given":"Daniela","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Nelson","given":"Barnaby","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""}],"container-title":"Frontiers in Psychiatry","id":"ITEM-3","issued":{"date-parts":[["2017"]]},"title":"Mediators linking childhood adversities and trauma to suicidality in individuals at risk for psychosis","type":"article-journal"},"uris":[""]},{"id":"ITEM-4","itemData":{"author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Brown","given":"LA","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Contractor","given":"A","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Benhamou","given":"K","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""}],"container-title":"Psychiatry Research","id":"ITEM-4","issued":{"date-parts":[["2018"]]},"title":"Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Clusters and Suicidal Ideation","type":"article-journal"},"uris":[""]}],"mendeley":{"formattedCitation":"<sup>46–49</sup>","plainTextFormattedCitation":"46–49","previouslyFormattedCitation":"<sup>47–50</sup>"},"properties":{"noteIndex":0},"schema":""}46–49 suicidal ideation scores were treated as a continuous variable in all analyses.We used linear regression to explore the potential prospective association between psychotic symptoms, metacognitive beliefs and suicidal ideation over time. This analysis focuses on the residual variance in suicidal ideation once baseline levels are accounted for. For the linear regression model, suicidal ideation at 9-18 months was first regressed onto symptoms (positive, negative and general) and covariates (same as 9-18 month cross-sectional analysis, but with the addition of baseline suicidal ideation). We then examined whether models also incorporating (a) baseline negative cognitive appraisals and (b) baseline negative metacognitive beliefs helped to explain additional variance. We then tested whether cognitive appraisals and negative metacognitive beliefs at baseline mediated a relationship between psychotic symptoms at baseline and suicidal ideation at 9-18 months, using the same covariates for the linear regression. For this, the baseline value of each symptom category was the independent variable, the mediating variables of interest were baseline appraisals and metacognitive beliefs, and the dependent variable was suicidal ideation at 9-18 months. We also examined the effect of symptom categories with and without other symptom categories as covariates.For all mediation analyses the unstandardised direct (UDE) or indirect (UIE) effects, and the completely standardised (CSE) indirect effects were calculated as measures of effect size. The UDE and UIE represent the unit change in the dependent variable per unit change in the independent, whether direct (unmediated; UDE) or indirect (mediated; UIE). The CSE represents the proportion of standard deviation change in the dependent variable per 1 standard deviation (SD) unit change in the independent variable, occuring through change in the mediator.

Just under half (n=31, 46%) were female. Overall, 60% (n=41) of these participants reported suicidal ideation at trial entry; 50% (n=34) reported having mild suicidal ideation whereas 10% (n=7) reported severe to very severe ideation involving intent. There were no significant differences in demographics, symptom severity, suicidal ideation, negative cognitive appraisals or negative metacognitive beliefs between the full sample, and those who provided full data at baseline and 9-18 months (all p>0.1).Correlations (Table 2).No correlation was observed between suicidal ideation and negative symptoms at baseline, but a moderate correlation (r=0.30) was evident at 9-18 months. At baseline, moderate correlations were observed between suicidal ideation and positive and overall symptoms for the sample with 9-18-month data. These associations were large at 9-18 months (r=0.47-0.51). Large correlations (r=0.43-0.57) between suicidal ideation and negative cognitive appraisals, negative metacognitive beliefs and general symptoms were also observed at both baseline (both samples) and at 9-18 months. Cross-sectional analyses Baseline (Supplementary Table 1)All results in the full sample (reported here) were replicated in those with full baseline and follow-up data. Total symptoms were related to suicidal ideation through the negative cognitive appraisals alone (CSE 0.13, 95% CI 0.04, 0.25) and the combined negative cognitive appraisals and negative metacognitive beliefs pathways (CSE 0.03, 95% CI -0.00, 0.11). No direct (unmediated) effect was observed. The same pattern was observed for positive symptoms. Overall, the effects suggest a 1 SD increase in overall or positive symptoms were indirectly associated with small increases in suicidal ideation (CSEs 0.12 - 0.18), with approximately 70% of the indirect effects accounted for by the negative cognitive appraisals alone pathway, and 20% by the combined negative cognitive appraisals and negative metacognitive beliefs pathway. Negative symptoms did not have a direct or indirect relationship with suicidal ideation. General symptoms had both a direct effect on suicidal ideation, suggesting a 0.03 unit increase in suicidal ideation scores for each unit increase in general symptoms [unstandardised direct effect (UDE) 0.03, standard error (SE) 0.012, p<0.05] and an indirect (mediated) effect (CSE 0.19, 95% CI 0.09, 0.34), suggesting that for a 1 SD increase in general symptoms, there was an additional 0.19 SD increase in suicidal ideation. As with total and positive symptoms, approximately 70% of this was accounted for by negative cognitive appraisals (CSE 0.14, 95% 0.05, 0.26). The indirect effect of positive symptoms was not robust to controlling for negative and general symptoms. However, both the direct and indirect effects of general symptoms remained significant after controlling for positive and negative symptoms. Although the overall indirect effect was marginally smaller (CSE 0.17, 95% CI 0.06, 0.31), the proportion explained by negative cognitive appraisals was larger (80%) in this analysis.9-18 months (Supplementary Table 3)No direct effect of total symptom severity on suicidal ideation was observed at 9-18 months, however this had an indirect effect through the combined pathway of negative cognitive appraisals and negative metacognitive beliefs (CSE 0.10, -0.00, 0.29). For a 1 SD increase in total symptoms, there was an overall 0.27 SD (95% CI 0.06, 0.26) indirect increase in suicidal ideation. The combined appraisals and negative metacognitive beliefs pathway accounted for approximately 37% of this effect. There was also no direct effect of positive symptoms. Although they had a significant indirect effect on suicidal ideation, with a 1 SD increase in positive symptoms indirectly associated with a 0.31 SD (95% CI 0.04, 0.61) increase in suicidal ideation, no one individual pathway was significant. The relative contributions of each individual pathway to this effect was similar to that for total symptoms. Negative symptoms had a direct effect on suicidal ideation at this timepoint, but no indirect effect. For each unit increase in negative symptoms, there was a 0.043 unit increase in suicidal ideation (SE 0.021, p<.05). As with total and positive symptoms, general symptoms were not directly associated with suicidal ideation. As with total symptoms, general symptoms had an indirect effect on suicidal ideation via the combined appraisals and metacognitive beliefs pathway (CSE 0.10, 95% CI 0.01, 0.30). The effect sizes and relative contribution of individual pathways was similar to that for total and positive symptoms. When we entered other symptom categories as covariates in the analyses of positive, negative and general symptoms, the indirect effects for positive symptoms were no longer significant and the analysis of negative symptoms remained unchanged. General symptoms continued to not have a direct effect after controlling for positive and negative symptoms. The indirect effect remained significant, however the contribution of the individual pathways changed, and the total indirect effect fell from a 0.32 SD (95% CI 0.09, 0.58) change in suicidal ideation per 1 SD change in general symptoms, to a 0.22 SD (95% CI 0.04, 0.45) change. The contribution of negative metacognitive beliefs to this effect increased from a nonsignificant 49% to a significant 70% (CSE 0.16, 95% CI 0.01, 0.43), and the contribution of the combined appraisals and metacognitive beliefs pathway fell from a significant 31% to a non-significant 24%. Longitudinal analysesMultiple linear regression (Supplementary Table 2)Baseline psychotic symptoms and suicidal ideation, together with covariates, accounted for 54% of the variance in suicidal ideation at 9-18 months. Adding baseline negative cognitive appraisals to the model did not account for additional variance, however adding negative metacognitive beliefs accounted for a further 5% (p<0.05). An effect of female gender also emerged; this was associated with a significant reduction in BDI suicidal ideation scores (0.4 points, p<0.05).Mediation analysis (Table 3)No direct effects of baseline symptoms on suicidal ideation at 9-18 months were observed. There were also no indirect effects of baseline negative or positive symptoms. Baseline total symptoms and general symptoms, however, had indirect effects on suicidal ideation at follow-up via the combined appraisals and metacognitive beliefs pathway. A 1 SD increase in baseline overall symptoms and baseline general symptoms accounted for a 0.03 SD (95% CI 0.00, 0.12) and 0.04 SD (95% CI 0.00, 0.14) increase in suicidal ideation at 9-18 months via this pathway, respectively. The analyses for general, positive and negative symptoms were largely unaffected by controlling for other symptom categories, although a significant direct effect of baseline negative metacognitive beliefs (UDE 0.051, SE 0.023, p=0.03) emerged in the general symptoms analysis and, as with the linear regression, a significant association between suicidal ideation and female gender emerged in each analysis, with a similar effect size.4.

Multivariate models and propensity score methods were used to adjust estimates of effectiveness.\\nResults Initial use of clozapine (adjusted relative risk 0.17, 95% confidence interval 0.10 to 0.29), perphenazine depot (0.24, 0.13 to 0.47), and olanzapine (0.35, 0.18 to 0.71) were associated with the lowest rates of discontinuation for any reason when compared with oral haloperidol. During an average follow-up of 3.6 years, 4640 cases of rehospitalisation were recorded. Current use of perphenazine depot (0.32, 0.22 to 0.49), olanzapine (0.54, 0.41 to 0.71), and clozapine (0.64, 0.48 to 0.85) were associated with the lowest risk of rehospitalisation.

Metacognitive therapy (MCT), which focuses on metacognitive mechanisms, has led to positive results in other disorders, but has yet to be evaluated in people with schizophrenia spectrum diagnoses. This study evaluates the feasibility of MCT for people with psychotic disorders. Methods Ten participants with schizophrenia spectrum disorders received up to 12 sessions of MCT in an open trial. Outcomes included psychiatric symptoms measured using the PANSS, at baseline, 9 months (end of treatment) and at 12 months (follow-up), as well as dimensions of hallucinations and delusions, emotional dysfunction, self-rated recovery, social functioning and metacognitive beliefs. Results T-tests and Wilcoxon's signed ranks tests revealed significant beneficial effects on several outcomes at end-of-treatment and follow-up. Cohen's d effect sizes were moderate to large (for PANSS total, d = 1.0 at end of treatment; d = 0.95 at follow-up). A response rate analysis found 50% and 40% of participants achieved at least a 25% reduction in PANSS total scores by end of therapy and follow-up, respectively. Exploratory analyses revealed that metacognitive beliefs significantly changed over treatment and follow-up periods. Limitations This study had no control group and was not randomised; therefore, it is likely that effect sizes were inflated.

Only concurrent general symptoms had a direct effect at baseline, and only concurrent negative symptoms had a direct effect at follow-up. Concurrent general symptoms also had an indirect effect on baseline suicidal ideation, mediated by negative cognitive appraisals. This was robust to controlling for other symptom categories. However no indirect effect of negative symptoms was found, and the indirect effect of positive symptoms was not not robust to controlling for general and negative symptoms. At 9-18 months, a similar pattern emerged. However, negative metacognitive beliefs played a more significant role at this point, which suggests the psychological mechanisms involved in suicidal ideation in psychosis may change over time in this group. They either formed part of the indirect pathway, mediating the mediating effect of negative cognitive appraisals (positive symptoms, general symptoms), or were a sole mediator (general symptoms controlling for positive and negative symptoms). Again, the pathway linking general symptoms and suicidal ideation was the only indirect pathway robust to controlling for other symptom categories. The longitudinal analyses are relevant to interpreting these findings. No direct effect of baseline general symptoms on later suicidal ideation was evident, but it had an indirect effect through concurrently measured negative cognitive appraisals and negative metacognitive beliefs. Although this indirect pathway explained only a very small amount of future suicidal ideation, both the linear regression and the mediation analyses (general symptoms, controlling for negative and positive symptoms) suggested a 1 point increase in baseline negative metacognitive beliefs may directly account for a 0.05 point increase in suicidal ideation at 9-18 months, which corresponds to a 0.5 point increase on the BDI suicide item (scored 0-3) per 10-point increase in negative metacognitive beliefs (scored 6-24). Notably, these beliefs did not predict concurrent suicidal ideation at baseline. If further research confirms these findings, high negative metacognitive beliefs at baseline may be a useful predictor of later increases in suicidal ideation in people with psychosis who are not currently taking antipsychotic medication, both directly and as a mediator of early general symptoms.

This study aims at investigating how well the suicide item of the clinician rated Hamilton Scale for Depression (HAM-D) and principal factors derived from this scale correlate with SI scores derived from a well validated measure of SI: the Beck's scale for SI (SSI). Method: 281 suicide attempters consecutively hospitalized between 2007 and 2009 were assessed by using the SSI, the HAM-D and the self-report Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was computed to extract main factors. Correlations between these factors, BDI's and HAM-D's suicide items and the SSI scores were then computed. Results: Three components were derived from the PCA. Factor 2 showed a major loading for the HAM-D suicide item. Both the HAM-D suicide item and Factor 2 positively correlated with the SSI total score (both p < 0.00001). Moreover, the BDI suicide item highly correlated with the Factor 2 (p < 0.001) and the SSI total score (p < 0.00001). Finally, the HAM-D suicide item correlated significantly with the number of suicide attempts (p = 0.0001) and the age at the first attempt (p = 0.002). Limitations: Our sample was heterogeneous and future studies should refine the taxonomy of the suicidal behavior in specific sub-populations. The study design was cross-sectional and replication in a prospective study is needed. Conclusion: These findings suggest that the use of a single suicide item or a dimensional factor derived from a depression scale might be a valid approach to assess the suicidal ideations. Moreover, the results suggest that clinician rated scales as well as self-report questionnaires are equally valid to do so. ? 2011 Elsevier B.V.

However, the differential effects of adversity/trauma-domains and CHR-criteria, i.e. ultra-high risk and basic symptom criteria, on suicidality remain unclear. Furthermore, the underlying mechanisms and thus worthwhile targets for suicide-prevention are still poorly understood. Therefore, structural equation modeling was used to test theory-driven models in 73 CHR-patients. Mediators were psychological variables, i.e. beliefs about one’s own competencies as well as the controllability of events and coping styles. Additionally, symptomatic variables (depressiveness, basic symptoms, attenuated psychotic symptoms) were hypothesized to mediate the effect of psychological mediators on suicidality as the final outcome variable. Results showed two independent pathways. In the first pathway, emotional and sexual but not physical adversity/trauma was associated with suicidality, which was mediated by dysfunctional competence/control beliefs, a lack of positive coping strategies and depressiveness. In the second pathway, cognitive basic symptoms but not attenuated psychotic symptoms mediated the relationship between trauma/adversity and suicidality. CHR-patients are thus particularly prone to suicidality if adversity/trauma is followed by the development of depressiveness. Regarding the second pathway, this is the first study showing that adversity/trauma led to suicidality through an increased risk for psychosis as indicated by cognitive basic symptoms. As insight is generally associated with suicidality, this may explain why self-experienced basic symptoms increase the risk for it. Consequently, these mediators should be monitored regularly and targeted by integrated interventions as early as possible to enhance resilience against suicidality.","author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Schmidt","given":"Stefanie J.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Schultze-Lutter","given":"Frauke","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Bendall","given":"Sarah","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Groth","given":"Nicola","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Michel","given":"Chantal","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Inderbitzin","given":"Nadja","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Schimmelmann","given":"Benno G.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Hubl","given":"Daniela","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Nelson","given":"Barnaby","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""}],"container-title":"Frontiers in Psychiatry","id":"ITEM-3","issued":{"date-parts":[["2017"]]},"title":"Mediators linking childhood adversities and trauma to suicidality in individuals at risk for psychosis","type":"article-journal"},"uris":[""]},{"id":"ITEM-4","itemData":{"author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Brown","given":"LA","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Contractor","given":"A","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Benhamou","given":"K","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""}],"container-title":"Psychiatry Research","id":"ITEM-4","issued":{"date-parts":[["2018"]]},"title":"Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Clusters and Suicidal Ideation","type":"article-journal"},"uris":[""]}],"mendeley":{"formattedCitation":"<sup>46–49</sup>","plainTextFormattedCitation":"46–49","previouslyFormattedCitation":"<sup>47–50</sup>"},"properties":{"noteIndex":0},"schema":""}46–49 and dichotomising the data for logistic regression would incur a substantial loss of statistical power.ADDIN CSL_CITATION {"citationItems":[{"id":"ITEM-1","itemData":{"author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Altman","given":"DG.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Royston","given":"P","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""}],"container-title":"BMJ","id":"ITEM-1","issue":"7549","issued":{"date-parts":[["2006"]]},"page":"1080","title":"The cost of dichotomising continuous variables","type":"article-journal","volume":"332"},"uris":[""]},{"id":"ITEM-2","itemData":{"DOI":"10.1017/S2045796012000613","ISSN":"20457960","PMID":"23089232","abstract":"In psychiatry, the use of rating scales as measures of outcome in clinical trials allows us to generate continuous outcome data, where each individual's outcome is measured in numbers.

Methods: We used confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) with a large data set (N = 5769). Results: The different subsamples were tested for heterogeneity and were found to be homogeneous. This indicates that despite variability in age, sex, duration of illness, admission status, etc., in the different subsamples, the structure of symptoms is the same for all patients with schizophrenia. Although previous research has shown that a five-factor model fits the data better than models with three or four factors, no satisfactory fit for any of the 25 published five-factor models was found with CFA. Conclusions: Variability in age, sex, admission status and duration of illness has no substantial effect on the structure of symptoms in schizophrenia. The lack of fit can be caused by ill-defined items that aim to measure several properties in a single rating. Another explanation is that well-defined symptoms can have two or more causes. Then a double or triple loading item should not be discarded, but included because the complexity of symptoms in schizophrenia is represented by these multiple loadings. Such a complex model not only needs confirmation by CFA, but also has to be proven stable. A 10-fold cross-validation is suggested to develop a complex and stable model. ? 2006 Elsevier B.V.

The purpose of this study was to use a 'new' statistical method to develop and confirm an improved five-factor model. The improved model is both complex and stable. Complex means that symptoms can have multiple factor loadings, because they have multiple causes, not because they are ill defined. Stable means that the complex structure is found repeatedly in validations. Methods: A ten-fold cross-validation (10?CV) was applied on a large data set (N = 5769) to achieve an improved factor model for the PANSS items. The advantages of 10?CV are minimal effect of sample characteristics and the ability to investigate the stability of items loading on multiple factors. Results: The results show that twenty-five items contributed to the same factor all ten validations with one item showing a consistent loading on two factors. Three items were contributing to the same factor nine out of ten validations, and two items were contributing to the same factor six to eight times. The resulting five-factor model covers all thirty items of the PANSS, subdivided in the factors: positive symptoms, negative symptoms, disorganization, excitement, and emotional distress. The five-factor model has a satisfactory goodness-of-fit (Comparative Fit Index = .905; Root Mean Square Error of Approximation = .052). Conclusions: The five-factor model developed in this study is an improvement above previously published models as it represents a complex factor model and is more stable. ? 2006 Elsevier B.V.

The outcomes were overall efficacy (primary outcome); responder and dropout rates; positive, negative, and depressive symptoms; quality of life; functioning; and major side effects. Potential moderators of efficacy were analyzed by meta-regression.\n\nRESULTS:The analysis included 167 double-blind randomized controlled trials with 28,102 mainly chronic participants. The standardized mean difference (SMD) for overall efficacy was 0.47 (95% credible interval 0.42, 0.51), but accounting for small-trial effects and publication bias reduced the SMD to 0.38. At least a \"minimal\" response occurred in 51% of the antipsychotic group versus 30% in the placebo group, and 23% versus 14% had a \"good\" response. Positive symptoms (SMD 0.45) improved more than negative symptoms (SMD 0.35) and depression (SMD 0.27). Quality of life (SMD 0.35) and functioning (SMD 0.34) improved even in the short term. Antipsychotics differed substantially in side effects. Of the response predictors analyzed, 16 trial characteristics changed over the decades.

To help make sense of these claims, the interventionist model (IM) of causality has several attractive features. First, it connects causation with the practical interests of psychiatry, defining causation in terms of ' what would happen under interventions ', a question of key interest to those of us whose interest is ultimately in intervening to prevent and treat illness. Second, it distinguishes between predictive-correlative and true causal relationships, an essential issue cutting across many areas in psychiatric research. Third, the IM is non-reductive and agnostic to issues of mind–body problem. Fourth, the IM model cleanly separates issues of causation from questions about the underlying mechanism. Clarifying causal influences can usefully structure the search for underlying mechanisms. Fifth, it provides a sorely needed conceptual rigor to multi-level modeling, thereby avoiding a return to uncritical holistic approaches that ' everything is relevant ' to psychiatric illness. Sixth, the IM provides a clear way to judge both the generality and depth of explanations. In conclusion, the IM can provide a single, clear empirical framework for the evaluation of all causal claims of relevance to psychiatry and presents psychiatry with a method of avoiding the sterile metaphysical arguments about mind and brain which have preoccupied our field but yielded little of practical benefit.","author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Kendler","given":"K.

Factors with robust evidence of increased risk of suicide were previous depressive disorders (OR=3.03, 95% CI 2.06-4.46), previous suicide attempts (OR=4.09, 95% CI 2.79-6.01), drug misuse (OR=3.21, 95% CI 1.99-5.17), agitation or motor restlessness (OR=2.61, 95% CI 1.54-4.41), fear of mental disintegration (OR=12.1, 95% CI 1.89-81.3), poor adherence to treatment (OR=3.75, 95% CI 2.20-6.37) and recent loss (OR=4.03, 95% CI 1.37-11.8).

MCT does not advocate challenging of negative automatic thoughts or traditional schemas. It proposes the existence of a universal maladaptive thinking style that causes disorder and focuses on helping patients regulate their cognition more adaptively. It aims to reduce worry and rumination and alter problematic patterns of attention and coping. In doing so it targets underlying metacognition that controls thinking and helps patients develop new ways of consciously experiencing inner events. Data from treatment studies suggest that individual MCT techniques and full treatment are highly effective. Further randomized trials are clearly warranted.

Objectives: Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT) is an effective psychological intervention for several different mental health conditions. However, whether it is acceptable, safe, and beneficial for people with psychosis remains unclear, as is the feasibility of providing and evaluating it within a research context. The aim of this study was to begin to address these questions and to obtain for the first time a rich and detailed understanding of the experience of receiving CAT for psychosis. Design: A mixed-methods case series design. Method: Seven individuals who experienced non-affective psychosis received CAT. They completed assessments at the start of CAT, 16 weeks, and 28 weeks post-baseline. Qualitative interviews were completed with four individuals following completion of or withdrawal from therapy. Results: Six participants attended at least four sessions of therapy and four went on to complete therapy. There were no serious adverse events, and self-reported adverse experiences were minimal. Qualitative interviews suggested CAT is acceptable and provided a way to understand and work therapeutically with psychosis. There was limited evidence of change in psychotic symptoms, but improvement in perceived recovery and personality integration was observed. Conclusions: The results suggest that CAT is a safe and acceptable intervention for psychosis. Personality integration, perceived recovery, and functioning are relevant outcomes for future evaluations of CAT for psychosis. Practitioner points: It is feasible to conduct research evaluating CAT for people with psychosis. Within this case series, CAT appears acceptable and safe to individuals with psychosis. Within this case series, clients reported that CAT was a positive and helpful experience. There is a mixed picture with regard to secondary outcomes, but the design and aims of this case series limit conclusion that can be drawn from this data.","author":[{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Taylor","given":"P.J.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Perry","given":"A.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Hutton","given":"P.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Tan","given":"R.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Fisher","given":"N.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Focone","given":"C.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Griffiths","given":"D.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""},{"dropping-particle":"","family":"Seddon","given":"C.","non-dropping-particle":"","parse-names":false,"suffix":""}],"container-title":"Psychology and Psychotherapy: Theory, Research and Practice","id":"ITEM-2","issued":{"date-parts":[["2018"]]},"title":"Cognitive Analytic Therapy for psychosis: A case series","type":"article-journal"},"uris":[""]}],"mendeley":{"formattedCitation":"<sup>63,64</sup>","plainTextFormattedCitation":"63,64","previouslyFormattedCitation":"<sup>64,65</sup>"},"properties":{"noteIndex":0},"schema":""}63,64 may be warranted to examine their effect on suicidality. Overall, our findings emphasise the importance of clinicians promoting a recovery-focused and appropriately optimistic outlook when working with people with psychosis, taking care to avoid providing information that might heighten negative illness appraisals and/or fears of losing mental control.
