A 10-year examination of people with psychosis in American television programing: are representations improving over time?
J Ment Health
March 2025
School of Social Work, Arizona State University, Phoenix, AZ, USA.
Background: Media portrayals inform understandings of mental illness; yet little research has investigated representations of characters with psychosis in fictional television programming.
Aims: This study examined the valence and trends regarding representations of people with psychosis in popular fictional television programing in the United States, one of the most influential markets in the world.
Methods: A content analysis was conducted of the 50 most-watched American primetime fictional television shows from 2011 to 2021.
Testing syndemic models along pathways to psychotic spectrum disorder: implications for population-level preventive interventions.
Psychol Med
March 2025
Wolfson Institute of Population Health, Queen Mary University of London, London, UK.
Background: Population-level preventive interventions are urgently needed and may be effective for psychosis due to social determinants. We tested three syndemic models along pathways from childhood adversity (CA) to psychotic spectrum disorder (PSD) and their implications for prevention.
Methods: Cross-sectional data from 7461 British men surveyed in 5 population subgroups.
Characterising symptomatic substates in individuals on the psychosis continuum: a hidden Markov modelling approach.
Psychol Med
March 2025
Orygen, Parkville, VC, Australia.
Background: To improve early intervention and personalise treatment for individuals early on the psychosis continuum, a greater understanding of symptom dynamics is required. We address this by identifying and evaluating the movement between empirically derived attenuated psychotic symptomatic substates-clusters of symptoms that occur within individuals over time.
Methods: Data came from a 90-day daily diary study evaluating attenuated psychotic and affective symptoms.
Fahr's syndrome is a rare, progressive, neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by bilateral and symmetrical calcifications over the basal ganglia and other parts of the brain, leading to a wide range of clinical manifestations ranging from neurologic symptoms of movement disorders, seizures, and cerebellar dysfunction to neuropsychiatric symptoms such as dementia, psychosis, and mood disorders. The widespread calcific deposits within the brain tissue that characterize Fahr's syndrome develop secondary to different underlying conditions such as parathyroid disorders, brain infections, and toxic exposures. Hypoparathyroidism, a rare disorder of calcium and phosphate metabolism, is the most commonly identified etiology of Fahr's syndrome.

Major depressive disorder (MDD), bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia involve disruptions in processing rewarding stimuli. In this review, we propose that distinct mechanistic pathways underlie these disruptions in mood disorders versus schizophrenia, and we highlight the importance of understanding these differences for developing personalized treatments. We summarize evidence suggesting that reward processing abnormalities in mood disorders are driven by dysregulated motivational systems; MDD is characterized by blunted responses to reward cues, and bipolar disorder is characterized by heightened responses.
