PANSS, Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale; MZQ: MZQ 1, refusing self-reflection, MZQ 2, emotional awareness, MZQ 3, psychic equivalence mode, MZQ 4, regulation of affect, MZQ total; MAS-A-G, German version of the Metacognitive Assessment Scale- Abbreviated: SR, self-referential, OR, object-referential, D, decentration, M, mastery; OPD-2, LSIA-OPD subscales.

aSpearman correlation two-sided.

Corrected p-value (Bonferroni) for MAS-A-G, OPD-structure = p < 0.002; corrected p-value (Bonferroni) for PANSS = p < 0.003; corrected p-value (Bonferroni) for MZQ = p < 0.003.

No coefficient maintained significance after alpha-level correction.
