PREVALENCE OF BULLYING VICTIMISATION AMONGST FIRST-EPISODE PSYCHOSIS PATIENTS AND UNAFFECTED

Abstract

Despite increasing evidence suggesting that childhood maltreatment is significantly associated with psychosis, the specific role of bullying in the onset of psychotic disorders is still unclear. This study aimed to examine whether bullying was more prevalent amongst individuals presenting to services for the first time with a psychotic disorder than in unaffected community controls.
