The Effect Of Multiple Occupational Therapies On Functional Remission And Subjective Recovery For Schizophrenia

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of multiple occupational therapies on functional remission and subjective recovery of individuals with schizophrenic disorder. Methods: 26 people with schizophrenic disorder were divided into two groups using a random number table. The intervention group participated in routine community mental health center services and a total of 24 sessions of occupational therapies three times a week, while the control group participated in routine community mental health center services.

About this study

Background: Occupational therapies are one of the psycho-social intervention methods used in the treatment of serious mental disorders characterized by disability, such as schizophrenia.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of multiple occupational therapies on functional remission and subjective recovery of individuals with schizophrenic disorder.

Methods: 26 people with schizophrenic disorder were divided into two groups using a random number table. The intervention group participated in routine community mental health center services and a total of 24 sessions of occupational therapies three times a week, while the control group participated in routine community mental health center services. Data were collected using the Subjective Recovery Assessment Scale and the Functional Remission of General Schizophrenia Scale.

Primary outcomes

  1. Functional Remission of General Schzophrenia Scale (Pre Test)

    Time frame: 2 month

    The scale is a 5-point Likert type scale consisting of 19 items. The minimum score obtained from the scale is 19 points and the maximum score is 95 points. High scores from the scale indicate high functionality, while low scores from the scale indicate low functionality. Scale scores were expected to be low in the pretest.

  2. Subjective Recovery Assessment Scale (Pre Test)

    Time frame: 2 month

    The scale is a 5-point Likert type consisting of 17 items. The lowest score from the scale is 17 and the highest score is 85. Higher scores from the scale indicate that the individual perceives himself as more improved. Scale scores were expected to be low in the pretest.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Functional Remission of General Schzophrenia Scale (Post Test)

    Time frame: Forth month

    The scale is a 5-point Likert type scale consisting of 19 items. The minimum score obtained from the scale is 19 points and the maximum score is 95 points. High scores from the scale indicate high functionality, while low scores from the scale indicate low functionality. "Functional Remission of General Schzophrenia Scale" score was expected to increase in the post test.

  2. Subjective Recovery Assessment Scale (Post Test)

    Time frame: Forth month

    The scale is a 5-point Likert type consisting of 17 items. The lowest score from the scale is 17 and the highest score is 85. Higher scores from the scale indicate that the individual perceives himself as more improved. It was expected that the score obtained from the scale in the post-test would be high.

Other outcomes

  1. Functional Remission of General Schzophrenia Scale (Follow Up Test)

    Time frame: Seventh month

    The scale is a 5-point Likert type scale consisting of 19 items. The minimum score obtained from the scale is 19 points and the maximum score is 95 points. High scores from the scale indicate high functionality, while low scores from the scale indicate low functionality. "Functional Remission of General Schzophrenia Scale" score was expected to increase in the follow up test.

  2. Subjective Recovery Assessment Scale (Follow Up Test)

    Time frame: Seventh month

    The scale is a 5-point Likert type consisting of 17 items. The lowest score from the scale is 17 and the highest score is 85. Higher scores from the scale indicate that the individual perceives himself as more improved. It was expected that the score obtained from the scale in the follow-up test would be high.

  3. Effect Size of Functional Remission of General Schzophrenia Scale

    Time frame: Seventh month

    It shows how the applied occupational therapies affect the final and follow-up test scale scores of the intervention and control groups in terms of time.

  4. Effect Size of Subjective Recovery Assessment Scale

    Time frame: Seventh month

    It shows how the applied occupational therapies affect the final and follow-up test scale scores of the intervention and control groups in terms of time.
