“…Participation in work also helps to develop tangible skills, which improves work readiness and enhances capabilities to pursue life goals (Schonebaum & Boyd, ), which suggests likely activation of psychosocial mechanisms of self‐efficacy. This is consonant with Doyle et al () work that underscores self‐efficacy as an important mechanism by which clubhouses facilitate recovery.…”

“…Studies have shown that participation in clubhouses can reduce likelihood of rehospitalization (Di Masso, Avi‐Itzhak, & Obler, ), enhance self‐reported recovery and perceived quality of life (e.g., Tsang, Ng, & Yip, ), improve employment outcomes (e.g., Schonebaum & Boyd, ), enhance general physical and mental health (e.g., Tratnack & Kane, ), and decrease utilisation of healthcare resources (Grinspan, ; Hwang, Woody, & Eaton, ). Clubhouse members also share a collective identity (Mandiberg & Edwards, ) and the social support at clubhouses is associated with greater understandings of recovery (Pernice‐Duca & Onaga, ).…”

The clubhouse model is a community psychiatric rehabilitation program aiming to provide a restorative environment for people with severe mental health problems. These clubhouses provide their members with opportunities for friendship, employment, and education, which help them on their paths towards mental health recovery. Towards that end, the model features clubhouse members and staff working side by side to execute clubhouse activities. That is, unlike most of the community mental health programs where staff provide services to their clients, clubhouse staff are required to partner with members in their work. The aim of this qualitative study was to understand how the clubhouse staff elicited member participation and facilitate recovery. The research was conducted between Year 2013 and Year 2014 at the world's first clubhouse: Fountain House in New York City. The first author conducted 262 hr of active participant observation in 41 visits to Fountain House, and in‐depth interviews with 38 staff members who had worked at Fountain House for at least 1 month during the study period. The dimensional analysis procedure was used to analyse the observation notes and interview transcripts. Results showed that participation was a key to rebuilding members’ self‐confidence, which further encouraged members to seek more opportunities for self‐enhancement and personal growth. Specific organisational policies, programming, practical considerations, and other strategies shaped a positive environment for members to exercise autonomy, experience self‐efficacy, and model behaviours after others who have succeeded. Findings of this research support the egalitarian staff–member relationships and the maintenance of an open and transparent atmosphere of the clubhouse, as observational learning enables members to move forward with their journeys to recovery. Findings also may inform efforts to shift traditional psychiatric services towards recovery‐oriented care.

“…However, the international literature on the effects of clubhouse membership and participation is limited. To date, studies have established initial evidence that clubhouses may contribute to assisting their members to get a job, stay in the job, and increase their wages (Schonebaum and Boyd, 2012; Schonebaum et al., 2006), but also that transitional employment appears to have limited effects with regard to assisting members in obtaining steady employment in competitive work (Pirttimaa and Saloviita, 2009).…”

“…In Norway, the number of clubhouses is increasing and their ideology and methods appear to fit well with the current policies, emphasizing engagement in meaningful occupations, independent living and social participation, rather than a narrow medical focus on remediation from illness and symptoms (14,15). Outcome-focused studies related to clubhouses have mostly been concerned with employment (16,17), and a review found that clubhouses were an effective means for supporting employment, reducing hospitalizations, improving quality of life, and increasing social integration and social competence (18).…”

Background: The clubhouses are part of a growing international movement concerned with providing work-oriented psychosocial rehabilitation for people with a history of mental illness. Instruments used for measuring outcomes from clubhouse participation is in a developing phase. Aims: This study aimed to assess psychometric properties of an outcome survey tool used at a Norwegian clubhouse, and to explore factors associated with members' perceived outcomes from participation at the clubhouse. Methods: A cross-sectional design was used. The instrument's factor structure was examined with Principal Components Analysis (PCA), and internal consistency was assessed with Cronbach's α. Associations with the derived outcome scale score were examined with linear regression analysis. Results: All scale items belonged to the same latent factor, and internal consistency of the items was α = 0.81. Members, who used the clubhouse more frequently perceived the outcomes from participating to be better, compared to their counterparts. Conclusion: The outcome scale was unidimensional and the items fit well together. Active members were likely to evaluate outcomes of clubhouse participation as more positive, compared to less active members. Significance: The scale can be useful for exploring clubhouse members' perceptions of the outcomes they relate to their participation at the clubhouse.
