Abstract
Self-rated disability in first treated episode of psychosis is high, but improves across the first year, indicating signs of early recovery. Moreover, self-rated disability is related, but distinct from clinician-rated global functioning and self-rated life satisfaction, suggesting that self-rated disability should also be assessed in order to more fully describe outcomes in first episode psychosis. The findings highlight the need for specialised treatment of depression and social disability in early psychosis.
