The electroencephalography protocol for the Accelerating Medicines Partnership® Schizophrenia Program: Reliability and stability of measures
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Individuals at clinical high risk for psychosis (CHR) have variable clinical outcomes and low conversion rates, limiting development of novel and personalized treatments. Moreover, given risks of antipsychotic drugs, safer effective medications for CHR individuals are needed. The Accelerating Medicines Partnership® Schizophrenia (AMP® SCZ) Program was launched to address this need. Based on past CHR and schizophrenia studies, AMP SCZ assessed electroencephalography (EEG)-based event-related potential (ERP), event-related oscillation (ERO), and resting EEG power spectral density (PSD) measures, including mismatch negativity (MMN), auditory and visual P300 to target (P3b) and novel (P3a) stimuli, 40-Hz auditory steady state response, and resting EEG PSD for traditional frequency bands (eyes open/closed). Here, in an interim analysis of AMP SCZ EEG measures, we assess test-retest reliability and stability over sessions (baseline, month-2 follow-up) in CHR (n = 654) and community control (CON; n = 87) participants. Reliability was calculated as Generalizability (G)-coefficients, and changes over session were assessed with paired t-tests. G-coefficients were generally good to excellent in both groups (CHR: mean = 0.72, range = 0.49-0.85; CON: mean = 0.71, range = 0.44-0.89). Measure magnitudes significantly (p < 0.001) decreased over session (MMN, auditory and visual target P3b, visual novel P3a, 40-Hz ASSR) and/or over runs within sessions (MMN, auditory/visual novel P3a and target P3b), consistent with habituation effects. Despite these small systematic habituation effects, test-retest reliabilities of the AMP SCZ EEG-based measures are sufficiently strong to support their use in CHR studies as potential predictors of clinical outcomes, markers of illness progression, and/or target engagement or secondary outcome measures in controlled clinical trials.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
