Factors Influencing Self‐Stigma in the First Year of First‐Episode Psychosis

Key Points

This research aims to identify factors influencing self-stigma in individuals experiencing first-episode psychosis (FEP).
Explored associations between self-stigma and various factors like DUP, THC use, and anxiety/depression levels.
Analyzed the impact of early interventions on self-concept in FEP individuals.
Identified DUP, THC use, and anxiety/depression as key contributors to self-stigma in FEP.
Early interventions targeting these aspects can improve self-concept and mitigate self-stigma.

Abstract

The variables most strongly associated with self-stigma are DUP, THC use and the anxiety/depression Emsley factor. Early interventions focused on these aspects could significantly enhance the self-concept of individuals with FEP and reduce the long-term negative impact of self-stigma.
