UHR, ultra-high-risk group; FEP, first-episode psychosis group. ERP, event-related potential. MMN, mismatch negativity.

a

Some subjects failed to stay before the ERP session was terminated. The number of analyzable P50/N100 subjects was 20 UHR and 13 FEP. The number of analyzable MMN subjects was 18 UHR and 16 FEP.

b

Chi-square tests.
