Catalan and colleagues aggregated findings related to detection, prognosis, and intervention in Clinical High Risk for Psychosis (CHR‐P) children and adolescents through October 7, 2019 (Catalan et al., 2020). While a sufficient number of studies were available to meta‐analytically summarize evidence on detection and prognosis, the authors highlight the need for more studies on interventions, including cognitive behavioral therapy for psychosis, in CHR‐P youth. Further research on the biological and neural correlates of CHR‐P in children and adolescents is also needed. Though results from the few existing biomarker studies in CHR‐P youth were included in the systematic review, disparate study methodologies and outcomes prohibited biomarker study meta‐analysis.
