Big Brother's resident psychologist Dr Sandra Scott says the housemates' behaviour toward Jade "could lead to their eventual downfall."
She believes Jade has become a scapegoat for housemates to vent their anger on, serving only to increase viewers' sympathy for her.
Jade's odds of winning the show have now been cut to 4/1.
"There is a tendency for frustration to be vented disproportionately on Jade at the moment," says Dr Scott.
"Such behaviour makes people look bad and increases sympathy for Jade at a time when public opinion is very important to the housemates. Their behaviour towards Jade could lead to their downfall."
Dr Scott says Tim's refusal to join in the housemates' games shows that he is being true to himself.
"Tim does not like joining in with the others when he feels they are being artificial and just playing up to the cameras," she says.
"He feels strongly about not behaving in a way that he would not 'normally' outside the house and in this way remains true to himself.
"I do not think his particular vanity about his hair colour is a betrayal of his 'true' self, or a significant indication of inferiority."
