“…In terms of aggressive behavior specifically, our study reaffirmed previous research findings by demonstrating that cognitive training was linked to a significant decrease in impulsive aggression across various metrics. The current investigation yielded noticeable improvements in aggressive behavior within the study group, which aligns with previous research discoveries ( 16 , 32 ).…”

“…Studies have substantiated this claim by examining a group of SCZ patients residing in forensic hospitals, who were randomly allocated to either social cognitive and interactive intervention or a control group receiving general coping skills training. Remarkably, the former group exhibited a significantly lower occurrence of aggressive incidents in comparison to the latter ( 16 , 22 , 23 ). Scientific research has shown that implementing behavioral therapy for individuals with psychiatric conditions leads to a notable reduction in the utilization of sleep medication.…”

“…This knowledge is essential for implementing efficacious strategies for prevention and early intervention. SCZ is linked to a 4–6 times higher likelihood of engaging in verbal and physical threats, as well as a 4–7 times higher likelihood of committing violent acts when compared to other psychiatric and general population groups ( 12 , 16 ).…”

“…In patients diagnosed with SCZ, neurocognitive impairments serve as a distant precursor to violent behavior, whereas social cognitive impairments seem to exert a more immediate influence on everyday acts of aggression ( 13 , 16 , 21 ). There is increasing evidence indicating that deficits in both neurocognitive and social cognitive abilities play a role in the regulation of negative emotions and impulsive aggression among individuals diagnosed with SCZ.…”

BackgroundSchizophrenia (SCZ) is linked to a heightened risk of impulsive aggression and disturbances in sleep patterns. Cognitive and social cognitive impairments have been connected to aggression, with social cognitive deficits appearing to play a more immediate role. In this investigation, we conducted a retrospective analysis of the impact of cognitive training and sleep interventions on aggressive behavior and the quality of sleep among individuals with SCZ who were hospitalized.MethodsThis study divided 80 hospitalized patients into two groups according to medical advice, namely the normal group and the study group. The control group received routine drug treatment and education; The research group implemented cognitive training and sleep intervention based on the normal group. Collect basic clinical data, aggressive behavior indicators, and sleep quality indicators.ResultsThere is no difference in the basic information statistics between the two groups. Both groups can reduce aggressive behavior and improve sleep quality. In the study group, there was a notable decrease in aggressive behavior compared to the control group. Furthermore, the sleep quality in the study group exhibited significant improvement when compared to the control group.ConclusionCognitive training and sleep intervention have been proven to be effective nonpharmacological treatments, effectively reducing aggressive behavior and improving sleep quality.

“…Presently, researchers are exploring ways to improve MTT ability, one of which is cognitive correction training. Computerized cognitive remediation therapy (CCRT) is a brain-training method used in the study of SCZ and affective disorders using a series of targeted tasks to enhance learning and improve patients’ cognitive abilities ( 10 ). Over the past 20 years, the number of trials investigating the efficacy of CCRT in SCZ spectrum disorder has increased significantly ( 11 ), and there is evidence that CCRT improves cognitive function in patients with SCZ, and that the benefits persist long after treatment has ended, particularly in memory, attention, and executive functioning ( 12 ).…”

ObjectiveTo investigate the intervention effect of computerized cognitive remediation therapy (CCRT) on mental time travel (MTT) in patients with schizophrenia(SCZ).MethodsFrom August 2020 to July 2021, 60 patients with SCZ were randomly allocated to either the study or the control group. The control group was treated with conventional drugs alone. The study group received CCRT and medical therapy for 40 minutes three times a week for 4 weeks. The participants underwent the MTT test before and after the training.ResultsA total of 28 patients in the study group and 26 patients in the control group were included in the analysis. Before training, there was no significant difference in the concretization ratio of recalling past and imagining future events between the study group and the control group (P > 0.05). After 4 weeks of training, the specific event ratio of the study group was higher than that of the control group (P < 0.01). In terms of the emotional titer of the events, the concreteness of the positive events in the study group was higher than that of the neutral events and negative events (P < 0.01). The concreteness of negative events was higher than that of neutral events (P < 0.01).ConclusionCCRT can improve the MTT ability of SCZ patients, which is manifested by an increase in the concretiveness of recalling past and imagining future events.
