a

Repeated measures ANOVA comparing Healthy Control (HC), Clinical High Risk (CHR), and Early Illness Schizophrenia (ESZ) groups across the three deviant types (DUR, FREQ, DBL) using age-corrected mismatch negativity (MMN) z-scores. DUR=Duration deviant type; FREQ=Frequency deviant type; DBL=Double-deviant type.

b

Repeated measures ANOVA comparing converters and non-converters to psychosis across DUR, FREQ, and DBL deviant types using age-corrected MMN z-scores. More positive MMN z-scores indicate greater MMN deficits relative to HC.

c

Between group comparisons are based on post-hoc Tukey tests. Between lead comparisons are based on Helmert contrasts.
