The present study evaluated the concurrent validity of the Rust Inventory of Schizotypal Cognitions (RISC) using the MMPI and the Psychosis Proneness Scales. Multiple regression techniques applied to the RISC and the other measures employed offer support for the validity of this measure as a screening instrument for use in non‐clinical samples.
