Kruskal Wallis for all three groups Social cognition H (2, n = 159) = 64.25, p < 0.0001, Perceptive H (2, n = 159) = 41.68, p < 0.0001, cognitive H (2, n = 159) = 51.08, p < 0.0001. Corrected values obtained after excluding 2 extreme values in the community control group ^asignificant after Bonferroni correction for 15 comparisons
