Brief Summary:
This study was aimed to examine the effectiveness (illness management and recovery, engulfment, quality of life) of a 12-week the Illness Management Skills Training applied to patients with schizophrenia. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Hypothesis (H1-1): Illness Management Skills Training applied intervention group has lower engulfment than the control group.
Hypothesis (H1-2): Illness Management Skills Training applied intervention group has higher quality of life than the control group.
Hypothesis (H1-3): Illness Management Skills Training applied intervention group has higher illness management and recovery level than the control group.
Researchers were compared the Illness Management Skills Training to a control group (no intervention) to see if the Illness Management Skills Training works on engulfment, quality of life, illness management and recovery in patients with schizophrenia.
Participants were:
\- attended the Illness Management Skills Training, one session per week for 12 weeks, 60 minutes per session, in addition to routine outpatient clinic check-ups.
Detailed Description:
The study examined 110 individuals aged 18-65 who were diagnosed with schizophrenia and applied to the S.U. Faculty of Medicine Mental Health and Diseases Polyclinic in the last year, according to the inclusion-exclusion criteria. A total of 50 individuals diagnosed schizophrenia were included in the study. These individuals were randomly assigned to two groups: intervention and control. Pre-test data were collected using the "Personal Information Form", "Modified Engulfment Scale", "SF 36 Quality of Life Scale" and "Illness Management and Recovery Scale-Patient Form" from the intervention and control groups by researchers between August 2024 and February 2025 in the Group Therapy Room of the Mental Health and Diseases Polyclinic, based on self-reporting. The "Illness Management Skills Training" was applied to the intervention group in 4 groups, one session per week, for a total of 12 weeks. At the end of the Illness Management Skills Training, both the intervention and control groups were administered the "Modified Engulfment Scale", "SF 36 Quality of Life Scale" and "Illness Management and Recovery Scale-Patient Form". No intervention was applied to the control group throughout the 12-week program; the patients continued with their routine outpatient clinic check-ups.
