Background: Studies examining the effects of incorporating patients' preferences into treatment outcomes highlight their impact on crucial aspects such as reduced dropout rates and enhanced effectiveness. Recognizing individuals' rights to participate in decisions about their treatments underscores the importance of studying treatment...

Son escasos los conocimientos en relación a la atribución causal de los trastornos psicóticos por parte de pacientes y familiares, aspecto que podría estar relacionado con las actitudes y las reacciones emocionales de los mismos hacia el trastorno. Para explorarlo, se tomó una muestra de 162 pacientes con diagnóstico de psicosis y sus...

Far too little is known about causal attribution of psychotic disorders according to patients and relatives, something that could be related to their attitudes and emotional reactions towards the disorder itself. In order to examine this matter, a sample of 162 patients diagnosed with psychosis and their families, who were included in...

Predictive coding framework posits that our brain continuously monitors changes in the environment and updates its predictive models, minimizing prediction er-rors to efficiently adapt to environmental demands. However, the underlying neurophysiological mechanisms of these predictive phenomena remain unclear. The present study aimed to explore...
