Note. Positive and negative symptoms were derived from the Structured Interview for Prodromal Syndromes (SIPS). Depressive symptoms were measured using the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). Social function was measured using the Global Functioning Scale: Social (GFS:S) and Global Functioning Scale: Role (GFS:R). Religiosity was assessed with the Duke University Religion Index (DUREL).
NS= non-significant. Chi-Square and Independent t-tests were employed to examine group differences in demographic variables.
