Theta Oscillations Assessed From a Passive Auditory Oddball Paradigm in Individuals at Clinical High-Risk for Psychosis and Healthy Control Individuals: Associations with Clinical Outcomes and Mismatch Negativity
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background: Reduced mismatch negativity (MMN) is a widely replicated schizophrenia biomarker. Time-frequency analyses suggest that deficient phase synchrony and/or power of electroencephalography (EEG) event-related oscillations, especially theta, contribute to MMN deficits in schizophrenia. Whether theta oscillations assessed from a passive auditory oddball paradigm are abnormal in clinical high-risk for psychosis (CHR-P) individuals and whether these oscillations predict CHR-P clinical outcomes remain unclear. These questions were addressed using data from NAPLS2 (North American Prodrome Longitudinal Study 2). Methods: EEG was recorded from 77 CHR-P individuals who converted to psychosis (CHR-Cs), 238 CHR-P nonconverters (CHR-NCs) who completed a 24-month follow-up, and 241 healthy control (HC) individuals. Theta oscillations elicited by standard and deviant tones were calculated. Theta (4-6 Hz) intertrial phase coherence (ITC) and total power were compared between groups and evaluated as predictors of time to psychosis conversion in the full CHR-P sample. Furthermore, analyses of covariance were used to assess whether theta deficits persisted while covarying for MMN. Results: s < .039). Conclusions: These results implicate abnormalities in microcircuit generators of theta oscillations in CHR-P individuals at highest risk.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
