Study Summary
The study will investigate the viability of two cognitive rehabilitation strategies to improve functional outcomes for people with schizophrenia. Many people with schizophrenia experience impairments in cognitive function which limit their abilities. These impairments have been shown to precede the onset of illness and represent a vulnerability factor which is exacerbated by emerging psychotic symptoms. These impairments affect a range of functional domains including symptom severity, work function, symptom management, treatment, and overall quality of life. Recognizing the link between cognitive impairment and function, a few clinicals and researchers have attempted to remediate cognitive impairments by providing cognitive retraining programs similar to those used in traumatic brain injured patients or adaptive skills training. Cognitive retraining involves repetitive exercises to increase elemental cognitive functions including memory, attention, psychomotor speed, planning, and cognitive flexibility. Adaptive skill training involves didactic group exercises in social skills, activities of daily living, and symptom management. Each approach has demonstrated some rehabilitation benefits. This study will investigate the effectiveness of a combination of these two approaches on outcomes in schizophrenia.
