Abstract: Aim: To investigate relationships between stress, resilience, recovery style, and persecutory delusions in early psychosis.Methods: Thirty-nine participants completed questionnaires in a cross-sectional design.Results: Higher stress, lower resilience, and a sealing-over recovery style predicted higher delusional severity and accounted for 31% of the variance in delusion severity.Conclusions: Enhancing stress-coping strategies, building resilience, and facilitating an integrative recovery style may be helpful intervention targets for reducing the severity of persecutory delusions in patients with early psychosis.
