Brief Summary:
This study was designed to examine the effects of peer education-supported psychosocial skills training on stigma perceptions, social functionality and insight levels of chronic psychiatric patients followed up in a community mental health center.
The research was planned as a mixed method study conducted in a randomized controlled experimental study design and a qualitative study design. With the findings obtained, it is aimed to increase the social functionality of the patients, to increase the level of insight and to reduce the perception of stigma, and to close an important gap in the literature, thanks to peer education-supported psychosocial skills training.

Detailed Description:
Hypothesis(s) and Question(s):
The hypotheses of the quantitative method of the research are as follows; H1-1: Peer Education Supported Psychosocial Skills Training has an effect on the social functionality levels of patients.
H1-2: Peer Education Supported Psychosocial Skills Training has an effect on patients' perceptions of stigma.
H1-3: Peer Education Supported Psychosocial Skills Training has an effect on patients' insight levels.
The research questions of the qualitative method of the research are as follows:
Q(1): How do the changes experienced by people with chronic mental disorders affect their lives? Q(2): How does Peer Education Supported Psychosocial Skills Training affect patients' social functionality levels? Q(3): How does Peer Education Supported Psychosocial Skills Training affect patients' perceptions of stigma? Q(4): How does Peer Education Supported Psychosocial Skills Training affect patients' insight levels? Q(5): What are the experiences and opinions of the patients who participated in the Peer Education Supported Psychosocial Skills Training program?
The research question created for the research to be mixed method:
Q(Mixed): Do the themes revealed by the statements of the patients as a result of the qualitative research support the quantitative findings obtained as a result of the quantitative research?
Data Collection and Intervention
Firstly, A 13-hour practitioner training about psychosocial skills training supported by peer education and group management will be given by the research psychiatric nurse to 4 patients (one as peer leader, other as assistant, the other two as substitutes) selected according to the inclusion criteria of the study.
Individuals who are called peer trainers and who are subjected to practitioner training by the researcher psychiatric nurse will carry out the 6-session psychosocial skills training as leaders and assistant leaders. Researcher psychiatric nurse will support them in this process, even if they need it. It is thought that with the education given by peer educators, patients can benefit from each other's experiences and have an effect on the relevant variables. Groups will be determined by lot by the center staff from among the patients who have or have not received psychosocial skills training before.
In the research, "Descriptive Information Form" will be used by the researcher as a data collection tool, indicating the sociodemographic characteristics of the participants. The measurement of the variables specified in the research will be provided by the Self Stigma Scale, Beck Cognitive Insight Scale and Social Functioning Assessment Scale.
In order to evaluate the qualitative data, a semi-structured interview form consisting of questions about the effectiveness of education on the variables will be used by the researcher. After the pre-test application, a measurement will be made at the end of the sessions in the 2nd week, 4th week and 6th week in order to measure the effectiveness of the study during the application. Also, a measurement will be made in the 8th week for follow-up purposes.
After the collection of quantitative data, 5 people from both experimental groups will be selected and qualitative data will be collected with 10 participants in total. Individual and face-to-face interviews will be conducted with the patients who make up the experimental group, and the interviews will be audio recorded with the knowledge and consent of the participant. Individual interviews will be provided with a semi-structured form for the effectiveness of the training.
