Shanghai Arch Psychiatry August 1, 2015 Peer reviewed DOI: 10.11919/j.issn.1002-0829.215068 via PubMed Central
Summary
This article examines the assumption that psychotic experiences are unique to psychosis, arguing that such experiences also occur in the general population and in other mental disorders. It discusses implications for research methodology, suggesting that studies should account for this overlap to avoid biased findings. The work also considers how this perspective might inform interventions, potentially broadening therapeutic approaches beyond traditional psychosis-specific treatments.
