Researchers and clinicians face ethical and policy-based challenges in disclosing, preventing and treating psychosis. Which diagnostic labels should be considered to motivate more effective public and professional dialogue about psychosis risk?

Empathic communication skills help motivate understanding of safety, significance of harms, impact on succeeding generations, and social consequences.

Transnational monitoring efforts should focus on safety, defining standard of care, and promoting just access to innovation.

Although the stigma of the psychosis risk label can cause harm, the label can also confer benefit and provides an explanatory framework for symptoms.

Physicians with a mental illness can have good, empathic relationships with their patients, even if patients know of their condition.

In US health care, language and linguistic difference are often conceived in discrete, instrumental, and monolithic terms.

CHWs’ work underscores need for clinicians and organizations to respond to deeply entrenched, long-standing patterns of oppression in ways that draw upon lived experience.

Helping patients mitigate their risk of chronic disease is key, but dietary supplements are risky.
