The goal of our study is to understand how individuals with a psychosis spectrum illness (such as schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, attenuated psychosis, schizophreniform, major depression with psychosis, or bipolar with psychosis) think, feel, and understand their surroundings.

You may qualify for a study if you meet the following criteria.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Ages 15-45
• No personal or family history of psychosis (e.g., schizophrenia, bipolar disorder with psychosis)
• Speak English
• No personal diagnosis of a major neurological disorder (e.g., seizures, epilepsy, Parkinson’s)
• No personal diagnosis of autism

Participation in this study involves 3 visits at the beginning doing virtual interviews and questionnaires and in-person computerized tasks and MRI brain scans, in which participants have an EEG test at the same time. Then, 6 months later participants will complete another 2 visits doing these same tasks. In total, this study lasts approximately 6 months and involves 5 study visits (in total, about 15 hours).

Participation in the optional phase 2 of the study involves 2-3 visits (in total, about 18 hours) over an additional 6 months and would involve the same above tasks with the addition of cognitive training on an iPad.

Eligible participants will be compensated! Compensation breakdown is as follows:

• Initial baseline visits: $245
• 6 month Follow Up visits: $215
• In addition, there will be monthly check-in surveys between visits, which are $5 each month
• Total: $485

Phase 2 payments:

• Training Period: Up to $350
• Post-Training visits: Up to $215
• Final Follow Up visits: Up to $265
• In addition, there will be monthly check-in surveys between visits, which are $5 each month
• Total: Up to $850

There is no cost for you to participate in our research study.
