Abstract

Objective-The early application of cognitive rehabilitation may afford long-term functional benefits to patients with schizophrenia.This study examined the two-year effects of an integrated neurocognitive and social-cognitive rehabilitation program, cognitive enhancement therapy (CET), on cognitive and functional outcomes in early course schizophrenia.Method-Early course outpatients (mean illness duration = 3.19±2.24years) with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder were randomly assigned to CET (n = 31) or enriched supportive therapy (EST) (n = 27), an illness management intervention utilizing psychoeducation and applied coping strategies, and treated for 2 years.Multivariate composite indexes of cognitive, social adjustment, and symptomatology domains were derived from assessment batteries administered annually by computer-based tests and raters not blind to treatment assignment.Results-Of the 58 patients randomized and treated, 49 and 46 completed 1 and 2 years of treatment, respectively.Intent to treat analyses showed significant differential effects favoring CET on social cognition, cognitive style, social adjustment, and symptomatology composites during the first year of treatment.After two years, moderate effects (d = .46)were observed favoring CET at enhancing neurocognitive function.Strong differential effects (d > 1.00) on social cognition, cognitive style, and social adjustment composites remained at year 2, and also extended to measures of symptomatology, particularly negative symptoms.Conclusions-CET appears to be an effective approach to the remediation of cognitive deficits in early schizophrenia that may help reduce disability among this population.The remediation of such deficits should be an integral component of early intervention programs treating psychiatrically stable schizophrenia outpatients.Schizophrenia is a chronic and disabling mental disorder that is characterized by related deficits in cognition, functioning, and adjustment.The significant personal and societal costs of the disorder (1), its frequent deteriorating course (2, 3), and the consistent negative prognosis associated with untreated illness (4), all highlight the importance of early applications of evidence-based interventions to reduce long-term morbidity (5).Cognitive impairments, in particular, are promising targets for early intervention due to their early emergence (6), persistence (7), and contribution to functional outcome (8).Unfortunately,

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
