Methods The activities developed are: administrative actions;
institutional strengthening for social inclusion initiative through
work; and the Carnival Block organization.
Results This study work on constituting a social inclusion ini-
tiative through workshop that generate employment, e.g.: sale
material production, financial management, material replacement.
Although we do all the preparative to the Carnival Block–“Loucura
Suburbana”.
Conclusion The relationship with the psychiatric patients shows
that social inclusion through carnival workshop practice is the
primary means for the identity of people suffering from mental
disorders and contribute to reduce community social stigma.

Introduction DUP is the time from the emergence of first psy-
chotic symptom to the commencement of adequate antipsychotic
treatment. Psychopathological and sociocultural factors influence
patient’s treatment seeking behavior. Better understanding of DUP
could help in development of improved therapeutic strategies and
public health initiatives. Emphasis on early detection of psychosis
and reduction of DUP has led to a huge interest in pathways to care.
Objectives To understand the differences in baseline demograph-
ics, presentation, care-pathways and DUP in ethnically diverse
population of Lancashire, UK.
Methods Our cross-sectional study involved a subset analysis of
National EDEN data for Blackburn and Preston in Lancashire.
Results Of the 183 patients, 78% were Whites and rest belonged
to BME population. Median DUP was 188 days. Whites were sig-
nificantly younger at onset of both non-specific symptoms and
psychosis and at acceptance into EIS. Whites were significantly less
likely than non-whites to bemarried, more likely to be in paidwork
and to have used illicit drugs. There were no significant differences
with respect to other demographics/delays in help seeking or DUP.
Non-White group had shorter DUP of 95 days (but not statistically
significant, P = 0.060).
Conclusions Better understanding of mental illness and local ser-
vices inWhite patients could have led to early help seeking. Having
a supportive familymay have promoted early help seeking and thus
shorter DUP in BME group. Further studies are needed exploring
socioenvironmental variables, substance misuse and knowledge
of local psychiatric services amongst the BME population and the
influence of these variables on DUP.

Introduction In the rubber hand illusion (RHI) ense of body
ownership is changed by synchronous touches to the hidden par-
ticipant’s hand and a visible rubber hand. It was previously shown
at medically unexplained symptoms were associatedwith the
weaker RHI (n = 40).
Objectives We used data from our previous research nd sup-
plementary questionnaires to test the hypothesis that somatoform
symptoms would be associatedwith the decreased response to RHI.
Methods Subjects (n = 78) voluntarily undergo the following pro-
cedures: RHI experiment withmeasurement of proprioceptive drift
and self-reports, Screening for Somatoform Disorders (SOMS-2)
and Symptom Check List-90-Revised (the “somatization scale”).
Results Robust regression was used to evaluate predictors influ-
ence: Drift/Self-reports∼SOMS-2 + somatization. SOMS-2 was a
significant predictor for proprioceptive drift with positive coef-
ficient (P < 0.05, adjusted), both predictors were insignificant for
self-reports.
Conclusions Thus, the results of ere not reproduced. We
demonstrated on the larger sample, that the higher somatoform
symptoms (scores of SOMS-2) predicted the stronger RHI. Since
our research and ad been conducted on non-clinical groups,
it is necessary to conduct the critical experiment on the clinical
population.
The reported study was funded by RFBR according to the research
project No.16-36-00394.
