Cognitive factors associated with subclinical delusional ideation in the general population.

摘要: Abstract Cognitive biases have been found to be associated with delusions in schizophrenia and schizotypy. In the current study, we examined relationship between subclinical delusional ideation, measured using Peters Delusions Inventory, cognitive including bias against disconfirmatory evidence (BADE), ‘jumping conclusions’, need for closure, evaluated computerized BADE program, a sample of 117 healthy, non-psychiatric controls. Our results suggest that ideation is BADE, greater conclusions’ response style, tendency rate absurd unlikely interpretations an event as more plausible, which might indicative insufficient integration or ‘liberal acceptance’. These biases, occur much milder fashion than seen typical deluded patient samples, may nonetheless additively play role development common pathways healthy psychiatric samples.
