Accessible summary This study investigates victimization in male and female outpatients suffering from psychosis, the relationship to perpetrators, places where it occurs, and whether drugs or alcohol have been involved. A majority of the patients had been victimized in adulthood and in the previous year. Female patients were more frequently physically and sexually victimized than male patients. In future it is important for care to focus not only on interpersonal aspects of violence but also on environmental factors.
