Note: Neurocognitive performance = averaged standardized domain scores; Emotion recognition = standardized domain scores; Behavioral skills = total score, UCSD Performance-Based Skills Assessment-Brief; Functional outcome = total score, Quality of Life Scale, abbreviated; Cognitive insight = total score, Beck Cognitive Insight Scale (BCIS); Self-reflectiveness = subscale, BCIS; Self-certainty = subscale, BCIS.
D = deficit; ND = nondeficit.
Missing data: neurocognitive performance—deficit (n = 2) and nondeficit (n = 4); Emotion recognition—deficit (n = 2) and nondeficit (n = 6); Behavioral skills—deficit (n = 1) and nondeficit (n = 2); Lack of clinical insight—deficit (n = 1) and nondeficit (n = 2); Cognitive insight, self-reflectiveness, and self-certainty—nondeficit (n = 1).
