Perceived threat mediates the relationship between psychosis proneness and aggressive behavior

Abstract: Psychotic symptoms are associated with aggressive tendencies, but this relationship is both complex and imperfect. In contrast to psychotic disorders, little is known about aggressive behavior and sub-clinical psychotic symptoms (e.g., “psychosis proneness”), which are relatively common in the general population. Threat/control-override (TCO), which is the propensity to overestimate the likelihood that an outside agent will (1) inflict harm (threat) or (2) control one’s behaviors (control-override), has been a… Show more

“…Mediation is likely, however, since both symptoms are common in all psychotic patients (Bjørkly, 2002a;Bjørkly, 2002b;Cheung, Schweitzer, Crowley & Tuckwell, 1997;Fresan et al, 2011;Taylor, 1998;Volavka, 2013;Walsh et al, 2002). There is an increasing body of evidence suggesting that delusional violence is often prompted by associated emotional responses, such as anxiety, fear and anger (Bjørkly, 2002a;Bo et al, 2011;Cheung et al, 1997;Coid et al, 2013;Elbogen & Johnson, 2009;Fanning, Berman, Mohn & McCloskey, 2011;Fresan et al, 2011;Haddock & Shaw, 2008;Hodgins, 2008;Stompe, Ortwein-Swoboda & Schanda, 2004).…”

“…Cross-sectional reports from adult samples show threat/control-override (TCO) PLEs are associated with significantly higher levels of externalising psychopathology (Fanning et al, 2011). TCO symptoms include beliefs that others are out to harm you, that forces beyond your control affect your actions, or that your thoughts are not your own.…”
