Study Summary
Maintenance of employment is dependent upon being able to successfully integrate into one's work setting. This can present a significant challenge to individuals with serious mental illness, as they typically exhibit impairment in their ability to accurately perceive and understand social exchanges. Presently the most established intervention is Social Cognition and Interaction Training (SCIT), a 12-week group intervention in which participants learn strategies to enhance emotion recognition and to assess the accuracy of their interpretation of social interactions. To enhance transfer of training gains to functional outcomes, participants will be paired with a social mentor to facilitate completion of homework and to ensure that skills are practiced outside of treatment (supported SCIT). The study will examine the impact of supported SCIT on social and work role functioning. The specific aims are: 1. To assess the feasibility of providing supported SCIT to individuals with serious mental illness who are engaged in compensated work activity. 2. To assess the impact of supported SCIT on social cognitive skills as well as work and social performance. 3. To assess durability of intervention-induced change 3 months after the end of intervention. A single blind study will be conducted in which participants between 18-70 with serious mental illness (schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and bipolar disorder) are assigned to 12 weeks of supported SCIT. Intervention will consist of one 2-hour small group training sessions and 30 minutes of individualized supported practice of skills with a treatment facilitator weekly. Feasibility will be assessed with attendance at group and individual sessions. Baseline, post-intervention (3-month), and follow-up (6-month) assessments will measure social cognitive abilities and functional outcomes. Potentially confounding variables such as symptom severity and outside treatment hours will also be assessed. It is hypothesized that sup
