Abstract

ABSTRACT. Psychosis may exist in a continuum from psychotic-like experiences to clinical syndromes. Psychotic-like experiences are prevalent in the general population, and likely share the same pathophysiological changes as psychotic disorders from cognitive impairments and cerebral connectivity. To demonstrate this relationship, in a large sample of the general population, the relation between psychotic-like experiences and lower cognitive performance was found regardless depressive experiences. Also, the associations between psychotic-like experiences and modulation of spectral and small-world brain network parameters using time-frequency analysis of the electroencephalogram signal was assessed as changes from pre-stimulus to response windows during an auditory odd-ball paradigm.
