Psychometric characteristics of measures of social cognition

	Reliability	Convergent Validity	Criterion Validity
Emotion Perception
FEDT	SCZ α = .32; HC data unavailable	FEDT, FEIT, and ER40 were significantly intercorrelated with r’s ranging from .36–.67 (p<.05).	Emotion perception tasks not significantly associated with any measures of functioning.
FEIT	SCZ α = .38; HC α = .84
ER40	Unavailable in present sample
Theory of Mind
TASIT	SCZ α = .55; HC data unavailable	Hinting Task and TASIT were significantly correlated (r=.45, p<.001)	Theory of mind tasks not significantly associated with any indices of functioning
Hinting Task	SCZ α = .46; HC α = .70
Attributional Style
AIHQ Blame Index	SCZ α = .86; HC α = .84	In HC, Blame Index was associated with the ER40 (r=−.30, p<.05) and TASIT total (r=−.42, p<.01). In SCZ, FEDT was associated with AIHQ Blame (r=−.25, p<.05) and AIHQ Aggression (r=0.27, p<.05)	AIHQ Blame subscale was correlated with the QLS: Social index (r=−.27, p<.05). Not associated with other measures of functioning.
AIHQ Hostility Bias	SCZ α = .43; HC α = .43
AIHQ Aggression Index	SCZ α = .55; HC α = .26
Jumping to Conclusions
Beads Task	N/A	Not significantly correlated with any other measures of social cognition	Beads was significantly associated with QLS: Social index (r=.26, p<.05)
