Abstract
Cortisol secretion in the context of a putative novel social situation (i.e. clinic entry) may be a biological correlate of suspiciousness, impaired stress tolerance and affective symptoms in individuals vulnerable to developing psychosis. These associations are consistent with findings from experience sampling studies in individuals at risk for psychosis as well as basic studies of animal models of schizophrenia.
