3.4 socio-demographic, clinical and psychological risk variables
for progressing into FEP and UHR groups (two binary logistic regression
analyses)
Since PANSS was assessed within FEP, ReSch and UHR groups, multiple
absent values were observed upon performing linear multivariate
regression evaluations including such factors. Consequently, this
investigation conducted three separate binary logistic regression
evaluations, incorporating marital status, education level, age,
employment status, state of depression(according to MARDS score)CSQ
problem-solving, CSQ seeking for help, CSQ fantasy, CSQ repression, CSQ
rationalization and Self-esteem, as deemed necessary. Such evaluations
highlighted UHR group patients exhibited increased negative coping
styles (CSQ fantasy) in comparison to HC group counterparts, though
obtained increased positive coping style (CSQ problem-solving) in
comparison to FEP group counterparts. Findings in the FEP group were
similar to those in the ReSch group. (Table4)
