Improvement of patient attitude toward treatment among inpatients with schizophrenia and its related factors: Controlled study of a psychological approach

Schizophrenic outpatient perceptions of psychiatric treatment and psychotic symptomatology: An investigation using structural equation modeling

“…Second, reliable therapist perception was supposed to reflect the quality of the treatment relationship, and to be central to patient–therapist cooperation and an affective or relational component of the therapeutic alliance, 17 the formation of which is usually a delicate task, and is highlighted as crucial in the treatment 9 . Another clinical significance of the therapist perception was that it was predictive of a smooth acceptance of an appropriate attitude in the treatment situation as our previous study showed 18 . The present findings indicated that the patient‐role perception had some influence on the reliable therapist perception.…”

Some studies have demonstrated an inverse relationship between therapeutic alliance and severity of psychotic symptoms.…”

Psychological therapy for inpatients receiving acute mental health care: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of controlled trials

“…Eleven trials examined CBT and the remaining examined MCT ( k = 3), ACT ( k = 2), dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT; k = 1), eye‐movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR; k = 1), interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT; k = 1), or social skills training (SST; k = 1). One trial investigated the efficacy of a ‘psychological approach’, which in content appeared to be similar to CBT and was therefore included in the CBT category for subgroup analysis (Hayashi, Yamashina, Igarashi, & Kazamatsuri, ). Seven studies used a group format to deliver treatment, eleven used an individual format, and two used a mixture of both.…”

Patient and family attitudes toward schizophrenia treatment

“…One review found that even though psychoeducational interventions did not change medication attitudes or overall satisfaction with services, they did result in decreased relapse compared with standard care [31]. A study specifically designed to create an intervention that improved patients' attitudes as well as understanding of their illness and its treatment found that a priori recognition of need for treatment was significantly related to the effectiveness of the intervention [32]. Furthermore, data suggest that interventions with highly individualized and heterogeneous concepts of illness, etiology, and a positive view regarding prognosis are most effective [33].…”
