Evidence increasingly suggests that religion has important implications for outcomes in psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia (Gearing et al., 2011). Furthermore, while research has shown that practicing aspects of religiosity (eg, attending organized religious activities, engaging in prayer or mediation) is largely beneficial in the general population (Koenig, 2001), findings have been more nuanced in patients with schizophrenia. For example, evidence indicates that religion can serve as either a protective factor (eg religious affiliation may reduce negative symptoms)(Huguelet, et al., 2016) or a risk factor (eg may contribute to delusions)(Suhail & Ghauri, 2010) for this population. However, little is known about religious practices before the onset of illness in those at clinical high-risk (CHR) for psychosis. The present study investigates aspects of religiosity (ie, religious service attendance, feeling the presence of the divine, and the influence of religion on one’s approach to life) in CHR youth and healthy controls, as well as associations with symptoms and social functioning.A total of 71 adolescent CHR and 72 HC participants were recruited; inclusion criteria included the presence of a prodromal syndrome, exclusion criteria included diagnosis of an Axis I psychotic disorder. Participants were administered the Structured Interview for Prodromal Syndromes (SIPS; Miller et al., 1999), the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Disorders (SCID; Gibbon et al., 1997), the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI; Beck et al., 1961), and the Social and Role Global Functioning Scales (GFS: S and GFS: R; Cornblatt et al., 2007). Religiosity was assessed with the Duke University Religion Index
