“…Most importantly, no psychosocial intervention has been demonstrated to improve QoL in SSD to date [ 81 ], although future trials testing novel therapies, such as metacognitive training [ 19 ], may shed some light on this.…”

Background: Recovery has become a priority in schizophrenia spectrum disorders (SSDs). This study aimed to investigate predictors of objective—general functioning and disability—and subjective—quality of life (QoL)—measures of functional outcomes in SSD. Methods: Sample: n = 77 SSD outpatients (age 18–64, IQ > 70) participating in a randomised controlled trial. Baseline data were used to build three multivariable linear regression models on: (i) general functioning—General Assessment of Functioning (GAF); (ii) disability—the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS-2.0); and (iii) QoL—Satisfaction Life Domains Scale (SLDS). Results: Young age and being employed (R2 change = 0.211; p = 0.001), late adolescence premorbid adjustment (R2 change = 0.049; p = 0.0050), negative symptoms and disorganization (R2 change = 0.087; p = 0.025) and Theory of Mind (R2 change = 0.066, p = 0.053) predicted general functioning. Previous suicidal behaviour (R2 change = 0.068; p = 0.023) and negative and depressive symptoms (R2 change = 0.167; p = 0.001) were linked with disability. Previous suicidal behaviour (R2 change = 0.070, p = 0.026), depressive symptoms (R2 change = 0.157; p < 0.001) and illness recognition (R2 change = 0.046, p = 0.044) predicted QoL. Conclusions: Negative, disorganization and depressive symptoms, older age, unemployment, poor premorbid adjustment, previous suicide attempts and illness awareness appear to underlie a poor global functional outcome in SSD. Achieving recovery in SSD appears to require both symptomatic remission (e.g., through antipsychotics) and measures to improve mastery and relieve low mood.

“…In another systematic review, it was noted that people with schizophrenia acquired many skills such as communication and problem‐solving strategies thanks to social skills training (Morin & Franck, 2017). Puolakka and Pitkänen (2019) stated that some types of psychosocial skills training can improve the quality of life of people with schizophrenia. In contrast to the results of our study, Pilling et al (2002) found in their meta‐analysis that social skills training had an insignificant effect on quality of life and that there was no clear evidence of a difference between social skills training and other treatments when compared.…”

“…Another factor related to moral behavior is quality of life (17), which as an important part of feeling healthy includes physical, psychological and social aspects and includes physical, financial, emotional, psychological and social satisfaction (18). Quality of life is a comprehensive and multidimensional concept that means the perception of cultural contexts based on personal goals, expectations and standards and plays an important role in psychological health (19). The results showed that there was a positive and significant relationship between quality of work life and moral behavior (17).…”
