“…Documented SE + programs include social skills training, cognitive remediation interventions, and cognitive behavioral therapy for supported employment. For instance, McGurk and Mueser (2021) and Sauvé et al (2022) developed “Minds@Work” and the Thinking Skills for Work programs, respectively—aiming specifically at improving job acquisition and job tenure in psychosis via neurocognitive remediation (attention, memory, problem solving), with promising results. Interestingly, the results of the Lecomte et al (2020) study show that those who received SE in addition to group cognitive behavioral therapy for SE were significantly more likely to work more hours weekly compared to the group receiving only SE services (24 vs. 18 hr per week).…”

“…Although studies show that the severity of clinical symptoms has a negative and significant impact on job tenure, some found no link (Tsang et al, 2000) or only with negative symptoms (e.g., alogia, amotivation, anhedonia; Tsang et al, 2010). The most reported clinical impediments to successful work integration are cognitive deficits (Mahmood et al, 2019; Tsang et al, 2010), namely memory, attention, and executive functions (Sauvé et al, 2022).…”

“…Although self-esteem is not always associated with job tenure (Williams et al, 2016), self-esteem as a worker (i.e., one’s self-assessment as a valuable worker) improves once a job is obtained (Corbière et al, 2009). Social functioning, including social and communication skills, was also identified as a predictor of job tenure for people with SMI (Sauvé et al, 2022).…”

“…This may be partly explained by the choice of indicators to measure job tenure, such as the number of hours worked, the number of weeks worked, and the length of follow-up of individuals (>1 year or ≤1 year). According to several authors (Charette-Dussault & Corbière, 2019;McGurk & Mueser, 2004;Sauvé et al, 2019Sauvé et al, , 2022Tsang et al, 2000Tsang et al, , 2010Wewiorski & Fabian, 2004;Williams et al, 2016), the best predictors of job tenure are individual characteristics, employment specialists' skills, as well as natural supports and work accommodations. In this study, we wished to evaluate the influence of the documented predictors on the job tenure of people with an SMI enrolled in SE programs implemented in Canada.…”

Objective: Different predictors of job tenure for people with a severe mental illness (SMI) have been documented. Conflicting results may be explained by the choice of indicators to measure job tenure. This study aimed to assess the contribution of employment specialist competencies working in supported employment programs, client variables, and work accommodations, in determining job tenure in the regular labor market. Method: A longitudinal study was conducted over 6 months, including people with SMI (n = 209) registered in 24 Canadian supported employment programs. Multivariable modeling analyses were performed. Results: Overall, 67% (n = 140) of the sample were employed at the 6-month follow-up. Multilevel analyses showed that shorter duration of unemployment (i.e., the number of weeks worked), employment specialist knowledge, and working alliance were the strongest predictors of job tenure for people with SMI. With respect to the number of hours worked per week, diagnosis, executive functions, social functioning, work accommodations, and employment specialist skills were the strongest predictors of job tenure for people with SMI, with 57% of variance explained. Conclusions and Implications for Practice: Understanding the various predictors of job tenure can assist employment specialists in providing better interventions for the work integration of people with SMI. Impact and ImplicationsJob tenure for people with SMI remains a challenge, and this study underlined the importance of clients and employment specialist variables as well as work accommodations to improve longer job tenure. Understanding the direct and indirect relationships among these variables can support the work of employment specialists, providing better interventions for the work integration of people with SMI in the regular labor market.

“…The effectiveness of the intervention, however, emerged as limited by symptoms severity [68 & ]. Despite this limitation, the evidence supporting the usefulness of this approach is consistent, and is recently leading to the development of novel intervention programs and protocols [69].…”

Purpose of review Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders (SSD) are severe conditions that frequently produce significant impairment in cognitive performance, social skills and psychosocial functioning. As pharmacological treatment alone often provides only limited improvements on these outcomes, several psychosocial interventions are employed in psychiatric rehabilitation practice to improve of real-world outcomes of people living with SSD: the present review aims to provide a critical overview of these treatments, focusing on those that show consistent evidence of effectiveness. Recent findings Several recent systematic reviews and meta-analyses have investigated in detail the acceptability, the effectiveness on several specific outcomes and moderators of response of different psychosocial interventions, and several individual studies have provided novel insight on their implementation and combination in rehabilitation practice. Summary Cognitive remediation, metacognitive training, social skills training, psychoeducation, family interventions, cognitive behavioral therapy, physical exercise and lifestyle interventions, supported employment and some other interventions can be fully considered as evidence-based treatments in SSD. Psychosocial interventions could be of particular usefulness in the context of early intervention services. Future research should focus on developing newer interventions, on better understanding the barriers and the facilitators of their implementation in clinical practice, and exploring the opportunities provided by novel technologies.
