NCT ID NCT06649552
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aims to validate a French version of a questionnaire that helps detect very early signs of psychosis risk in teenagers aged 12 to 17. Researchers will check if different clinicians give consistent ratings when using the tool. The goal is to improve early detection and support for teens at risk, potentially delaying or preventing a first psychotic episode.
