Artificial intelligence accurately predicted thought disorder (TD) onset in adolescents using multimodal data. Structural brain differences and psychosocial factors identified youth at risk, informing potential interventions.
Area of Science:
- Neuroscience
- Psychiatry
- Artificial Intelligence
Background:
- Thought disorder (TD) is a key indicator for schizophrenia risk.
- Early identification of at-risk youth is crucial.
- Few studies prospectively predict TD onset in general youth populations.
Conclusions:
- Identified robust, person-level signatures for early adolescent TD.
- Left putamen structural differences are a candidate biomarker interacting with psychosocial stressors.
- Interventions targeting sleep and psychosocial stressors may modulate TD risk.
