About this study
The purpose of this study is to examine state representation in individuals aged 15-45 who have been diagnosed with a psychotic illness, as well as young adults who do not have a psychiatric diagnosis. State Representation is our ability to process information about our surroundings. The investigators will complete a clinical trial examining two paradigms of cognitive training. They will study the impact of the cognitive training on state representation, measured by computerized tasks, and brain activity during those tasks.
Read the detailed description
This is the second component of the State Representation in Early Psychosis study; the first component is reflected in NCT05273164. The 6-month follow up visit data from the first component will be used as the Baseline data for this secondary component.
In this portion of the study, participants will be invited to enroll in a clinical trial examining two forms of computerized cognitive training. They will be asked to complete 10 hours of training over a 3-6 week period. Upon completion of the training paradigm, they will have two additional follow up visits, a post-intervention and a 5 month follow up (which will correspond to approximately 12 months from enrollment). At both of these appointments, participants will complete the same activities completed in the first component of this project, which include interviews examining behaviors and symptoms of mental health conditions, self-report questionnaires, and a neurocognitive assessment. In addition, participants will complete 2 imaging appointments, in which they will receive simultaneous electroencephalography (EEG) and functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) while performing two computerized tasks.
In the second component, the investigators will recruit adults with early psychosis and demographically matched individuals without a mental health diagnosis who have completed the first component of the research. Participants will be stratified on an EEG index of state estimation processes (fronto-parietal theta power at encoding) and randomly assigned to the two training paradigms. The investigators will investigate parameter changes in the fit causal discovery analyses in each group, fit to DPX and Bandit task variant behavioral data immediately after training and 5 months later, and they will assess whether parameter changes reflect restorative or compensatory modifications. Finally, the investigators will test the hypothesis that state representation processes and cognitive performance show greater improvement in subjects who received training tailored to their state estimation parameter.

What participants receive

Computerized Cognitive TrainingDevice
Participants will complete computerized cognitive training developed by Posit Science Corporation. For a description of the training paradigms please review arm descriptions.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Perceptual Discrimination Training | Experimental | Training will involve Gabor patch and other visual stimuli discrimination exercises that focus on improving signal-to-noise resolution and attentional control with minimal working memory/cognitive control effects. On each training trial, participants are required to distinguish a target stimulus among a set of distractor stimuli. The similarity between target and distractors increases in level of difficulty based on an adaptive perceptual processing staircase function. Consecutive correct responses lead to increased modulation of the distractors to be more similar to the target, while 1 incorrect response drops the user to an easier level. Difficulty is adapted to maintain an 80% correct response rate. Each session will consist of 4 exercises requiring ~45 minutes. with 40 trials for each exercise. Receives: Device: Computerized Cognitive Training |
| Visual Cognitive Control Training | Experimental | Training will involve maintaining accurate representations of cognitive context (the "rule") in working memory during response selection. On each training trial, participants must observe stimuli, and hold the correct response context "on-line" in order to select the correct response from among the stimuli. Training is adaptive using a staircase function, such that two consecutive correct responses increases either the speed of stimuli presentation or the working memory load via an increased number of stimuli that are presented; one incorrect response reduces the cognitive load. Each session will consist of 45 exercises requiring ~45 minutes. Receives: Device: Computerized Cognitive Training |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Change in Performance of DPX Task Variant
The DPX task variant consists of a series of pattern sequences. One pattern is designated the "A" cue, and another the "X" cue, which requires one response (AX, 60-70% of trials, e.g. respond with the left button), while other sequences require a different response (AY or BX, 12-15% of trials each, or BY, 6-10% of trials, e.g. respond with the right button). Given the strong expectation that X's evokes a valid response, BX trials place demands on the fidelity (stability, memory) of the "B" cue state representation to overcome this tendency.
Measured: Baseline, Immediately after the intervention, 5 month follow up
Change in Performance of Bandit Task Variant
This is a task variant that uses choice options (neutral images) that are rewarded probabilistically. The rewarded stimulus with the highest reward is changed over time. State learning associated with staying or switching stimuli too quickly (lose-switching) can be evaluated.
Measured: Baseline, Immediately after the intervention, 5 month follow up
Change in Test My Brain Neurocognitive Assessment performance: Global Cognition Z Score.
The investigators will examine global cognition scores from the Test My Brain neurocognitive battery. Z scores range from -5 to 5, with higher score indicating increased cognitive functioning.
Measured: Baseline, Immediately after the intervention, 5 month follow up
Change in EEG Variables
Analysis will examine variables including phase synchrony, slope of the spectral power density (indexing E-I balance), and prefrontal/parietal theta as a measure of perceptual noise.
Measured: Baseline, Immediately after the intervention, 5 month follow up
Change in MRI Variables
MRI assessments will include structural MRI, Diffusion-weighted MRI, Resting State fMRI.
Measured: Baseline, Immediately after the intervention, 5 month follow up
Secondary outcomes (12)

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Computerized Cognitive Training in people with Psychosis and Schizophrenia, run by University of Minnesota at 1 site in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 20 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Dec 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Change in Performance of DPX Task Variant (time frame: Baseline, Immediately after the intervention, 5 month follow up). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Dec 2025.
