Systematic Review and Meta-analysis: Psychosis Risk in Children and Adolescents With an At-Risk Mental State
Despite the clear description of At Risk Mental States (AMRS) for a couple of decades, the ability to predict which individuals will progress to full-blown psychosis is less certain. This systematic review of 16 articles from 9 studies found that 1 in 6 young people had transitioned to psychosis at 5-year follow-up, but that sampling/recruitment strategies may have been more related to this risk than AMRS criteria.
