Figure 1 Logistic modeling of insight impairment: Variable selection, marginal effects, and risk estimates. A: Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) logistic model shows bootstrap inclusion frequencies from the LASSO logistic regression, identifying z-score for the Brief Visuospatial Memory Test-Revised (BVMT-R) (z-BVMT-R) and z-score for the Brief Assessment of Cognition in Schizophrenia: Symbol Coding (BACS-SC) (z-BACS-SC) as the most consistently selected predictors of impaired insight; B: Marginal effects display marginal effects of z-BVMT-R and z-BACS-SC on impaired insight across levels of total score of positive symptoms on the Scale of Psychotic-Risk Syndromes (P-Total), with shaded bands representing 95% confidence intervals; C: Johnson-Neyman plot illustrating the P-Total ranges in which the effect of z-BVMT-R remains statistically significant; D: Shows predicted probabilities of impaired insight across P-Total, stratified by high vs low z-BVMT-R, with the grey region indicating the Johnson-Neyman significant range; E: Depicts the clinical contrast absolute probability differences of impaired insight between low and high z-BVMT-R across P-Total; F: Shows the absolute predicted probability of impaired insight across combinations of P-Total and z-BVMT-R groups. LASSO: Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator; z-BVMT-R: Z-score for the Brief Visuospatial Memory Test-Revised; z-BACS-SC: Z-score for the Brief Assessment of Cognition in Schizophrenia: Symbol Coding; z-HVLT-R: Z-score for the Hopkins Verbal Learning Test-Revised; z-WMS-III-SS: Z-score for the Wechsler Memory Scale-3rd Ed: Spatial Span; z-CPT-IP: Z-score for the Continuous Performance Test-Identical Pairs; P-Total: Total score of positive symptoms on the Scale of Psychotic-Risk Syndromes; NS: Not significant.
