The effect of IPS on participants' engagement, quality of life, empowerment, and motivation: a randomized controlled trial

Areberg, Cecilia, Bejerholm, Ulrika·2013·Scandinavian Journal of Occupational Therapy

Abstract

Objective To investigate the effectiveness of Individual Placement and Support (IPS) with regard to non-vocational outcomes among individuals with severe mental illness.Methods A randomized controlled trial was carried out, comparing IPS with traditional vocational rehabilitation. The Empowerment Scale, the Worker Role Interview, the Profile of Occupational Engagement, and the Manchester Short Assessment of Quality of Life were administered to 120 clients, at baseline, six, and 18 months.Results IPS participants showed higher scores in quality of life (p = 0.002), empowerment (p = 0.047), and work motivation (p = 0.033) at 18 months. Within the IPS group, a significant change in QOL was shown at six (p = 0.002) and 18 months (p = 0.000), and in occupational engagement (p = 0.003; p = 0.012).Conclusions IPS can be part of a recovery process as individuals may increase their life satisfaction and time spent in daily occupations and community life.

  • The interventions included staff training about activity engagement, Individual Placement and Support (IPS), cognitive remediation, Social Recovery Therapy (SRT), a befriending program, lifestyle modification and occupational therapy group programs.

  • POES has been used to measure activity engagement and community inclusion outcomes of IPS programs for people experiencing severe mental illness, with significant improvements reported with more engagement in a range of activities and community contexts.

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.
