Description
Summary:We thank readers for their interest in our editorial. The main purposes of the editorial were threefold: (i) to highlight the relatively recent identification and characterisation of a non-clinical psychosis population (for review see Kelleher & Cannon); (ii) to point out that there might be important overlap in the genetics of the clinical and non-clinical psychosis phenotypes; and (iii) to discuss the potential value of this population for empirically testing evolutionary theories of psychosis.
