1 INTRODUCTION Individuals meeting the ultra-high risk (UHR) criteria are at high risk of developing a psychotic disorder. This group is therefore a prime target for indicated prevention to prevent a first episode of psychosis as well as for treatment of existing symptoms and disability (McGorry et al., 2018; Yung et al., 2003).

AbstractThe drivers of cognitive change following first-episode psychosis remain poorly understood. Evidence regarding the role of antipsychotic medication is primarily based on naturalistic studies or clinical trials without a placebo arm, making it difficult to disentangle illness from medication effects.
