Note:

a

Assessment of ultra high-risk subjects was based on state plus trait risk factors, attenuated symptoms, and/or brief limited intermittent psychotic symptoms.

b

P values of ANCOVA-derived planned contrasts adjusted for age, current IQ, and PANSS total symptom score with sex as additional factor.

c

Summary scores across faces and voices.

d

The ANOVA-derived unadjusted P value was statistically significant.
