Neighborhood Characteristics and Social Functioning: Exploring Shared and Distinct Psychosocial Pathways Among Individuals at Clinical High-Risk for Psychosis.
Article in Schizophrenia bulletin, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
background and hypothesisRecent research suggests that environmental factors may contribute to psychosis through at least partially distinct pathways. This study examined how neighborhood socioeconomic deprivation and social fragmentation relate to impaired social functioning in individuals at clinical high risk for psychosis (CHR-P) via social and contextual risk factors. STUDY
designData were collected from the North American Prodrome Longitudinal Study Phase 3. Neighborhood characteristics were geocoded using participant addresses at baseline. Social and contextual risk factors were derived from the Structural Assessment of Violence Risk in Youth. Social functioning was measured using the Global Assessment of Functioning: Social Scale. STUDY
resultsNeighborhood social fragmentation was associated with greater peer rejection (β = 0.11; 95% CI, 0.01-0.22, P = .034), which, in turn, was negatively associated with social functioning (β = -0.18; 95% CI, -0.23 to -0.12, P < .001). Both neighborhood social fragmentation (β = 0.18; 95% CI, 0.03-0.33, P = .022) and neighborhood socioeconomic deprivation (β = 0.34; 95% CI, 0.21-0.48, P < .001) were associated with greater community disorganization, which was negatively associated with social functioning (β = -0.08; 95% CI, -0.17 to -0.01, P = .046). Neighborhood socioeconomic deprivation had a direct negative association with social functioning (β = -0.15; 95% CI, -0.29 to -0.02, P = .03).
conclusionsThis study identified shared and distinct pathways relating neighborhood characteristics to impaired social functioning among CHR-P individuals. Understanding how environmental factors impact social functioning may help develop effective interventions for youth at high risk.
