Article Synopsis
- Psychotic-like experiences (PLEs) are common in kids and teens and can lead to serious mental health problems later on.
- A study of 16,560 young people found that about 17.3% had PLEs, which were linked to a higher risk of developing a psychotic disorder in early adulthood.
- The way PLEs are assessed matters; interviews might be better at identifying those at risk for psychosis compared to self-reports, and more research is needed to understand how PLEs and other factors interact.
