Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Inclusion criteria:
  • Participants with lived experience of psychosis must:
  • Be consenting/assenting adults (age 18+)
  • Be able to speak one of the main study languages: English, Chichewa, Krio, Shona, Yoruba
  • Live within the pilot study area
  • Have a current or past diagnosis of schizophrenia or other primary psychotic disorder, bipolar or depressive disorder with psychotic symptoms, or a maternal mental health or behavioural disorder with psychotic symptoms, as per the World Health Organisation's International Classification of Diseases Version 11 (see full list of eligible diagnoses, below).
  • For participants recruited from within the health care system, diagnosis will be confirmed from health records. For those identified in the community, a research worker will administer the World Health Organisation's Composite International Diagnostic Interview (WHO CIDI) screening tool for psychosis.
  • The following diagnoses are eligible for inclusion:
  • Schizophrenia (6A20)
  • Schizoaffective disorder (6A21)
  • Schizotypal disorder (6A22)
  • Acute and transient psychotic disorder (6A23)
  • Delusional disorder (6A24)
  • Other specified (6A2Y) or unspecified (6A2Z) primary psychotic disorder
  • Bipolar type I disorder with psychotic symptoms (6A60.1, 6A60.5, 6A60.7, 6A60.A)
  • Bipolar type II disorder with psychotic symptoms (6A61.3, 6A61.5)
  • Single episode depressive disorder with psychotic symptoms (6A70.2, 6A70.4)
  • Recurrent depressive disorder with psychotic symptoms (6A71.2, 6A71.4)
  • Mental or behavioural disorder associated with pregnancy, childbirth or the puerperium, with psychotic symptoms (6E21)
  • Exclusion Criteria:
  • People who are currently homeless, for logistical reasons; the SUCCEED intervention relies on PSWs and CSWs being able to regularly contact participants, including for home visits.
  • People with secondary psychotic syndromes (6E61), as these are considered to be the direct consequences of physical health conditions as opposed to mental health conditions.
  • People diagnosed with a substance-induced psychotic disorder (6C40.6-6C47.6), as recovery from substance use conditions is a specialist area outside the scope of the SUCCEED intervention under development.
