“…These elements were not included in the present study. This may suggest that psychosocial disability may need to be addressed directly if the primary intervention goal is improved community functioning (Mueser, 2012).…”

Computer-assisted drill-and-strategy CR in schizophrenia improved cognitive test performance, while participation in both CR and CG playing promoted enhancements in everyday self-efficacy. Changes in independent living skills did not appear to result from CR, however. Adjunctive psychosocial rehabilitation is likely necessary for improvements in real-world community functioning to be achieved. (JINS, 2018, 24, 549-562).

“…This perhaps reflects their experience that affective symptoms and experiences of social anxiety were most likely to hinder the achievement of outcomes. Of the known functional outcomes cited in the literature, employment and independence were most valued by our sample and were linked to life milestones and social relationships. Of the personal recovery outcomes documented in the literature, developing a positive sense of self seemed the most important for our participants; for those who were not doing well, this regaining a sense of familiar self was most important.…”

ObjectiveConduct a deep exploration of the outcomes that matter to people with a diagnosis of schizophrenia and understand from their perspective how these outcomes can be achieved.Sample and MethodsIn‐depth qualitative interviews were conducted with 22 people with a diagnosis of schizophrenia. Interviews were analysed using thematic frameworks, and a realist informed theories of change approach.ResultsOur study revealed the potential causal relationships between the context of a person's life, short‐term goals and long‐term outcomes. We provide a nuanced and detailed exploration of outcomes that matter for people with schizophrenia in relation to self‐defined well‐being. Achieving life milestones, feeling safe and outcomes related to improved physical health along with employment, a positive sense of self and psychosocial outcomes, were highly valued. For short‐ and long‐term outcomes to be achieved, individuals required medication with minimal side‐effects, cognitive behavioural therapy, family/social support and meaningful activities in their lives. Well‐being was influenced by life context and short‐ and long‐term outcomes, but in a circular nature also framed what short‐term goals could be achieved.ConclusionsWorking with people with a diagnosis of schizophrenia to identify and achieve better outcomes will necessitate a person‐centred approach. This will require an appreciation of the relationship between the statutory and non‐statutory resources that are available and a consideration of an individual's current well‐being status. This approach acknowledges personal strengths and encourages ownership of goals and supports self‐management.

“…The problem of these measures is the seasonal effect. (Mueser, 2012) or (Tacchi et al, 2012), publishing in December, will stand much less chance of being cited in the same year than (Mond, 2013) or (Hardy et al, 2013) in the following issue of the same journal. Papers published early in the year do even better than those published in August so (Grano et al, 2013) might well worry that they may already be falling behind.…”
