Automated delivery of psychological therapy using immersive technologies such as virtual reality (VR) might greatly increase the availability effective help for patients. We aimed to evaluate efficacy an automated VR cognitive (gameChange) treat avoidance and distress in patients with psychosis, analyse how whom it work.
Many patients with psychosis experience everyday social situations as anxiety-provoking. The fears can arise, for example, from paranoia, hallucinations, anxiety or negative-self beliefs. lead to withdraw activities, and this isolation leads a cycle of worsening physical mental health. Breaking requires highly active treatment directly in the troubling so that learn they safely confidently enter them. However seldom receive such life-changing interventions. To solve problem we have developed...
Recent findings suggest the incidence of first-episode psychotic disorders (FEP) varies according to setting-level deprivation and cannabis use, but these factors have not been investigated together. We hypothesized would be more strongly associated with variation in FEP than prevalence daily or high-potency use between settings. used data people aged 18-64 years from 14 settings EU-GEI study. estimated controls as a proxy for usage population at-risk; multiple imputations by chained...
Several studies have highlighted increased psychosis risk in migrant and minority ethnic populations. Migration before age 18 appears to increase risk, but further evidence is required. We investigated this issue a European case-control study. hypothesized that migration during two key socio-developmental periods, childhood adolescence, would be most strongly associated with odds of psychosis, more pronounced for racialised minorities. used data from five countries the EUropean network...

We hypothesized would be more strongly associated with variation in FEP than prevalence daily or high-potency use between settings.Study Design: used data people aged 18-64 years from 14 settings EU-GEI study. estimated high potency controls as a proxy for usage population...
