State Representation in Early Psychosis 2
University of Minnesota
500 participants
Oct 15, 2025
OBSERVATIONAL
Conditions
Summary
This observational study will examine behavioral and electroencephalography measures related to state representation in individuals with early psychosis and healthy control participants. Participants will complete clinical interviews, self-report measures, cognitive assessments, computerized behavioral tasks, and EEG assessments. The study will evaluate performance and computed parameters from the Translational Orientation Pattern Expectancy task and Translational Bandit Task, along with EEG variables related to cognitive control, reward processing, and neural synchrony. The study aims to better understand heterogeneity in early psychosis and identify neurocognitive and neurophysiologic markers that may inform future precision psychiatry approaches.
