🧠 Racism and psychosis

An umbrella review found consistent evidence linking racial/ethnic discrimination to psychosis, with higher odds of symptoms and experiences, though more high-quality studies are needed.

New preprint! ⬇️🤩

We find a reduced self-other distinction in psychosis 😶‍🌫️, including increased neural activity during self-touch 🧠, reduced latency differences already at the *spinal cord* level 😲, and diminished interoceptive accuracy 🫀.
