AIM This exploratory study aimed to examine differences in rates of self and clinician-reports of trauma in youth at clinical high risk for psychosis (CHR) and whether rates of reporting differed by ethnicity. METHODS Self-reported history of trauma was collected at intake amongst youth at CHR enrolled in Coordinated Specialty Care (CSC) services (N = 52). A structured chart review was conducted for the same sample to identify clinician-reported history of trauma throughout treatment in CSC. RESULTS For all patients, frequency of self-reported trauma at intake to CSC (56%) was lower compared to clinician-reports of trauma throughout treatment (85%). Hispanic patients self-reported trauma at intake (35%) less frequently than non-Hispanics (69%) (p = .02). No differences were found in clinician reported exposure to trauma by ethnicity throughout treatment. CONCLUSION Whilst further research is needed, these findings suggest the need for formalised, repeated, and culturally appropriate assessments of trauma within CSC.
