Journal ArticleDOI
Does treatment delay in first-episode psychosis really matter?
TL;DR: DUP consistently predicts outcome independently of other variables, and is not simply a proxy for other factors, which means it could prove to be a target for secondary preventive efforts in early psychosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
The relationship between duration of untreated psychosis and outcome: an eight-year prospective study.

TL;DR: Results support the need for assertive early detection strategies to facilitate the timely delivery of effective intervention programs to those with emerging psychotic illness in order to reduce the risk of long term deleterious outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lisa Henry,G. Paul Amminger,Meredith Harris,Hok Pan Yuen,Susy Harrigan,A. Prosser,Orli Schwartz,Simone Farrelly,Helen Herrman,Henry J. Jackson,Patrick D. McGorry +10 more
TL;DR: The relatively positive outcomes are consistent with a beneficial effect of specialized early intervention programs; however it is premature to draw firm conclusions.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Specialized early psychosis programs can deliver a higher recovery rate at one-third the cost of standard public mental health services, and further research is required to verify this finding.
Journal ArticleDOI
