About 3 percent of Americans will experience an episode of psychosis during their lifetime. In most cases, individuals experience a first episode of psychosis during their teen years or early adulthood.

These two address the use of cognitive behavioral therapy for psychosis and issues in the treatment of affective psychosis within coordinated specialty care programs.
