This study aims to analyze the relationship between the symptomatic dimensions of psychosis and functioning of individuals at risk for psychosis (ultrahigh risk [UHR]) in a non-help-seeking UHR sample from the general population. The sample is the same as the one used in the Brazilian Subclinical Symptoms and Prodromal Psychosis cohort study. We applied questionnaires of functioning (Global Assessment of Functioning Scale) and symptomatic dimensions (Scale of Prodromal Symptoms). Next, we correlated the symptomatic dimensions with functioning. We found a significant relationship between avolition and uncommon thought content with poor functioning, whereas the remaining symptoms were not as relevant. Poor functioning was most related to avolition, a negative symptom, followed by unusual thought content, a positive symptom.
