The current study examined the complex relation between aggression and psychotic experiences in a group of help-seeking adolescents. Findings support a significant, positive relation between aggressive behaviors and psychotic experiences while revealing a specificity of this relation for a subset of psychotic experiences called threat/control-override (TCO) symptoms.
