Objective: Psychosis is a set of symptoms that consist of delusions, hallucinations
an thought disorders. In DSM 5, psychoses were collected under the title of
schizophrenia spectrum and other psychotic disorders. The aim of this study was
to investigate the prevalence of a family history of psychiatric disorders in
patients with chronic psychosis and to examine the groups of these psychiatric
disorders.

Material and Methods: A total
of 282 patients with chronic psychosis, defined by DSM- 5diagnostic criteria,
were included in this study. Sociodemographic parameters and family history of
chronic psychosis patients were retrospectively reviewed.

Results: The mean
age of the patients was 41.3 years, the mean age of onset of the disease was
22.8 years and the mean number of hospitalizations was 5.78 years. Patient
group consisted of 94 (33.3%) males and 188 (66.7%) females. 48.6% (137/282) of
patients with chronic psychosis had a history of psychiatric disorder in their
first-degree relatives. In the diagnostic groups, there were 1.8% (5/282)
schizoaffective disorder, 18.4% (52/282) schizophrenia, 6% (17/282) bipolar
disorder, 5.7% (16/232) major depression, 13% , 8 (39/282) unspecified
schizophrenia spectrum and other psychotic disorder, 2.5% (7/282) mental
retardation, 0.4% (1/232) obsessive-compulsive disorder family history.

Conclusion: This study provides
a platform for future studies to contribute to the development of early
intervention and prevention approaches in populations at risk for further
clarification of the role of family history in individuals with a family history
