Abstract
⺠Delusions are resistant to change. ⺠Reasoning biases are thought to contribute to the maintenance of high delusional conviction. ⺠We have devised a computerised training programme targeting the 'Jumping to Conclusions' (JTC) bias and belief flexibility. ⺠In a case series evaluation, participants completing the training showed improvements in JTC, belief flexibility and delusional conviction. ⺠Larger-scale, controlled studies of this approach are warranted.
