The association between psychotic experiences (PEs) and non-accidental self-injury (NASI; including self-harm and suicide attempts) is well established, although variables influencing this relationship have not been comprehensively examined. This study aimed to investigate (1) the cross-sectional PE-NASI association before and after adjustment for confounders, and (2) the individual contribution of each confounding and potentially mediating variable to the association.
