Eva Velthorst vergaarde meer kennis over de fase voorafgaand aan een eerste psychose: de Ultra Hoog Risico (UHR)-fase. Hierin doen zich milde positieve symptomen voor zoals achterdocht of vluchtige hallucinaties. Jongeren met deze symptomen hebben 10 tot 40 procent kans om binnen een jaar een eerste psychose te ontwikkelen. UHR-jongeren die sociale desinteresse en sociaal terugtrekgedrag vertonen en rapporteren dat ze moeilijk vriendschappen kunnen onderhouden, ontwikkelen vaker een eerste psychose. Hun sociale isolement zou een gevolg kunnen zijn van achterdocht, maar kan er ook toe leiden dat jongeren hun ideeën niet meer toetsen bij anderen, wat hun waanideeën en achterdocht in stand kan houden of versterken.
