Abstract
Background:
Predictors of recovery are crucial to the successful tailoring of treatment in first episode psychosis. There is a lack of service-user investigations with regard to factors driving recovery and experiences regarding antipsychotic treatment. Particularly clinically recovered service users are an under-researched subgroup. There are also few studies distinguishing the predictive effects of different social factors with regard to recovery.
