CHR-P clinical high risk for psychosis.

All models used generalized linear mixed multivariate models with the following fixed effects (age, female sex, family history of mental illnesses, and area-level deprivation) and random effects (counties and sites).

Model A tested the associations between all fixed effects and right fusiform cortical thickness among CHR-P ethnoracial minorities (n = 164).

Model B tested the associations between all fixed effects and right insula cortical thickness among CHR-P ethnoracial minorities (n = 164).

Model C tested the associations between all fixed effects and right fusiform cortical thickness among healthy ethnoracial minorities (n = 80).

Model D tested the associations between all fixed effects and right insula cortical thickness among healthy ethnoracial minorities (n = 80).

All significant associations (p < 0.05) are shown in bold.
