Higher prefrontal cortical thickness in high schizotypal personality trait

A model of schizophrenia-spectrum disorders hypothesized that schizotypy shares biomarkers with schizophrenia but due to protective factors such as a greater prefrontal cortex those individuals have a reduced vulnerability to schizophrenia. In contrast to previous studies exploring volumetric brain correlates of schizotypy focussing on clinical samples or relying on between-group comparisons we measured cortical thickness and correlated it with...
