Abstract
This research provides evidence for differential relations between subtypes of psychotic-like experiences (PLEs) and suicidal ideation and behaviors, particularly thought control, auditory hallucinations, suspiciousness, and nihilistic thinking. Results examined potential mechanisms underlying these associations, finding that distress from PLEs may be an important, modifiable risk factor to target in interventions.
