“…Barragan et al (2011) attempted to capture a range of different negative symptom subtypes in adolescents using the Community Assessment of Psychic Experiences (CAPE), where social withdrawal and avolition were associated with depressive symptoms while affective flattening was not. In addition to a limited PE scope, many epidemiological surveys (including the current one) cannot distinguish between a single fleeting episode and recurrent PEs, and so future studies should continue to further investigate the frequency and predictors of persistence versus remission of PEs (DeVylder et al, 2015), as there is growing evidence that frequent PEs which persist over time are more specific predictors for psychotic disorders (Dominguez et al, 2011; Poulton et al, 2000), as well as other clinical or functional impairments later in life, including increased levels of depressed mood, self-harm, and general psychopathology (Connell et al, 2016; De Loore et al, 2011).…”

Hallucinatory and delusional experiences are common in Australian adolescents. Hallucinatory experiences, rather than delusional experiences, may be more clinically relevant in this demographic. When psychotic experiences are endorsed by adolescents, further assessment is indicated so as to ascertain more detail on the phenomenology of the experiences to better understand their clinical relevance.

“…Walker’s (2015) developmental theory, for example, suggests that a feedback loop in communication is an essential process for one to gain information and to individually progress and better oneself. Individuals who live with schizophrenia may desire to establish close relationships, but this may be difficult for them because of their disoriented psychotic behaviors and depression, which can limit their ability to communicate clearly (APA, 2013; Cohen et al, 2015; DeVylder, Lehmann, & Chen, 2015; Kasckow et al, 2011; Nugent, Daniels, & Azur, 2012; Walsh, 2018). Close relations and social support systems for many individuals in our society include family members (Buchanan & McConnell, 2017).…”

“…Often the experiences within a family setting enable the individual to develop a sense of self. One study has reported social relations as a potential protective factor for psychotic individuals, with lower odds of psychotic experiences if they are married (DeVylder et al, 2015; odds ratio = 0.53, 95% confidence interval [0.35, −0.82], p = .005). However, many individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia report limited family support and few close friends (Burbach, 2018; Robustelli et al, 2017).…”

Older adults diagnosed with schizophrenia (OADWS) have unique needs for care and live longer today than their forebears who were diagnosed with schizophrenia. As a result, nurses need to be prepared for the specific care of individuals who live with schizophrenia as they age. Together, Life Course Theory and holistic nursing suggest a good fit in the quest for successful solutions and/or outcomes for the unique problems that OADWS face. Holistic nursing views the patient as a whole person, considering all aspects of the patient’s experiences within life’s broader environment. The life course paradigm offers an effective way for nurses to understand issues that patients face throughout their lives, thus enhancing holistic nursing with a historical perspective. This is especially important for the care of OADWS, who face unique disparities as well as physical and psychological comorbidities over their life course. This article is intended to initiate a discussion of OADWS, focused with Life Course Theory as a holistic lens. Literature pertinent to the life course of OADWS is reviewed, followed by an analysis of the life course paradigm in relation to OADWS’ unique experiences. Conclusions support the holistic use of Life Course Theory in research and interventions for OADWS.

“…The marital maladjustment in patients was associated with poor quality of life. 14 Another study from the same center compared the marital adjustment of patients with schizophrenia, bipolar affective disorder (BPAD) and substance dependence reported poor marital adjustment in 60% of patients with schizophrenia, which was lower than observed in patients with BPAD (70%), but higher than that noted in patients with substance dependence (50%); however, the differences were not statistically significant. Compared to patients with substance dependence, patients with schizophrenia have significantly poorer sexual adjustment.…”

Aim: To evaluate the marital profile, family size, fertility rates, and perception about various aspects of marriage among the couples, with one of the partner having schizophrenia and compare the same with a group of couples, with one of the partner having recurrent depressive disorder (RDD). Methodology: A total of 76 married patients with schizophrenia and 58 married patients with RDD were evaluated by using a semistructured interview, which covered information about the duration of marriage, number of children, different aspects of marital and sexual life like perception about marriage, mental illness, sexual compatibility, and other variables. Results: A significantly higher proportion of patients with schizophrenia had onset of illness prior to marriage, when compared to the patients with RDD. There was no significant difference between the 2 groups in terms of mean number of children, number of spontaneous abortions, and medical termination of pregnancies. The mean numbers of postnatal deaths were significantly higher in the group in which one of the partners was diagnosed with schizophrenia. Compared to spouses of patients with RDD, higher proportion of the spouses of patients with schizophrenia reported sexual incompatibility since the beginning of the marriage and lack of full satisfaction with sexual life. Compared to patients with RDD, higher proportion of patients with schizophrenia were worried about their children developing mental illness and believed that people with mental illness should not marry. Conclusion: To conclude, this study demonstrates that compared to the spouses of patients with RDD, spouses of patients with schizophrenia have higher negative perception about the marriage.
