Popis: | Gender-related differences in epidemiological and clinical variables of psychosis have long been recognized; however, data in first episodes of psychosis (FEPs) in subjects younger than 18 years old are scarce. Before the onset of psychosis, women are more likely to have a history of suicide attempts and depression, and they are more likely to have depressive symptoms. In samples of FEPs, a female preponderance for specific traumatic events such as sexual abuse and bullying is found. |
