Random effects model of pooled proportion of persistent Psychotic experiences (PEs) compared to remitted PEs, by age category. Persistence/year is the rate of persistence per year, Total/year = total sample person-year per study. Age category = age at follow-up (to measure new incidence): Adolescence = 13–17 years; Adult = 18–64 years; Older adult = 65+ years old. The dotted line represents the overall pooled estimate, the pooled estimate for each subgroup and overall are shown in the diamonds. The box shows each studies weighted portion, and the horizontal line shows each studies confidence interval.
