Prediction of self-stigma in early psychosis: 3-Year follow-up of the randomized-controlled trial on extended early intervention

Our results of more than one-third of early psychosis patients experienced significant self-stigma underscore the clinical needs for early identification and intervention of self-stigmatization in the initial years of psychotic illness. Further research is warranted to clarify prediction profile and longitudinal course of self-stigma in the early illness phase.
