Abstract
BACKGROUND The concept of personal recovery after psychotic illness focuses more on patients' social and existential needs compared to traditional outcome measures including clinical and functional recovery. This research aims to contribute to a broad framework on (personal) recovery and associated factors. METHODS Data from 203 persons with symptomatic remission of their first-episode psychosis from the ongoing HAMLETT study were analyzed. To determine the relative importance of several biological, clinical, psychological, and social factors in explaining personal recovery as measured by the Recovery Assessment Scale (RAS), partial Spearman correlations (controlling for clinical recovery (PANSS) and functional recovery (WHODAS 2.0)) and a bootstrapped multiple regression were performed. Indirect effects on personal recovery within these factors, clinical recovery, and functional recovery were explored using a regularized partial correlation network. RESULTS Of the factors that explained personal recovery beyond the effects of clinical and functional recovery, social support was the strongest predictor, followed by self-esteem, internalized stigma, and insecure attachment, collectively explaining 48.2 % of the variance. Anhedonia/apathy showed a trend towards a negative correlation. Age at onset, sex, early trauma/neglect, cognition, and being married/cohabiting did not significantly correlate with personal recovery. The network (n = 143) was consistent with these findings and indicated possible mediation pathways for early trauma/neglect, insecure attachment, cognition, and being married/cohabiting. CONCLUSIONS Personal recovery is an important addition to traditional measures of outcome after psychosis. Various quality of life indicators, such as self-esteem and social support, explain variance in personal recovery over clinical and functional recovery.

Abstract
AIM A first episode of psychosis (FEP) is a stressful, often life-changing experience. Scarce information is available about personal preferences regarding their care needs during and after a FEP. Whereas a more thorough understanding of these preferences is essential to aid shared decision-making during treatment and improve treatment satisfaction. METHODS Face-to-face interviews with participants in remission of a FEP were set up, addressing personal preferences and needs for care during and after a FEP. The interviews were conducted by a female and a male researcher, the latter being an expert with lived experience. RESULTS Twenty individuals in remission of a FEP were interviewed, of which 16 had been hospitalized. The distinguished themes based on personal preferences were tranquillity, peace and quietness, information, being understood, support from significant others, and practical guidance in rebuilding one's life. Our findings revealed that the need for information and the need to be heard were often not sufficiently met. For 16/20 participants, the tranquillity of inpatient treatment of the FEP was predominantly perceived as a welcome safe haven. The presence and support of family and close friends were mentioned as an important factor in the process of achieving remission. CONCLUSIONS The current exploratory study showed that patients were able to indicate their personal needs. Important findings are the need for information and the need to be heard. Interestingly, hospitalization was mostly seen as an opportunity to achieve tranquillity. More lived experience expertise is needed to elucidate the needs of individuals in the early phase of a FEP to aid people who are recovering from their first psychosis in rebuilding their lives again.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cognitive deficits may be characteristic for only a subgroup of first-episode psychosis (FEP) and the link with clinical and functional outcomes is less profound than previously thought. This study aimed to identify cognitive subgroups in a large sample of FEP using a clustering approach with healthy controls as a reference group, subsequently linking cognitive subgroups to clinical and functional outcomes. METHODS 204 FEP patients were included. Hierarchical cluster analysis was performed using baseline brief assessment of cognition in schizophrenia (BACS). Cognitive subgroups were compared to 40 controls and linked to longitudinal clinical and functional outcomes (PANSS, GAF, self-reported WHODAS 2.0) up to 12-month follow-up. RESULTS Three distinct cognitive clusters emerged: relative to controls, we found one cluster with preserved cognition (n = 76), one moderately impaired cluster (n = 74) and one severely impaired cluster (n = 54). Patients with severely impaired cognition had more severe clinical symptoms at baseline, 6- and 12-month follow-up as compared to patients with preserved cognition. General functioning (GAF) in the severely impaired cluster was significantly lower than in those with preserved cognition at baseline and showed trend-level effects at 6- and 12-month follow-up. No significant differences in self-reported functional outcome (WHODAS 2.0) were present. CONCLUSIONS Current results demonstrate the existence of three distinct cognitive subgroups, corresponding with clinical outcome at baseline, 6- and 12-month follow-up. Importantly, the cognitively preserved subgroup was larger than the severely impaired group. Early identification of discrete cognitive profiles can offer valuable information about the clinical outcome but may not be relevant in predicting self-reported functional outcomes.
