摘要

Felt presence (FP) – sensing another person without clear sensory evidence – has been described in psychosis for over a century but rarely studied due to challenges in recognition and assessment. Recently FP has been identified as a transdiagnostic phenomenon and highlighted by people with lived experience of psychosis as a clinical priority. Here we describe FP presentation in a first-episode psychosis sample and report preliminary associations with affect, gender, and psychopathology.
