Abstract
Purpose: To evaluate the effect of multiple occupational therapy (mOT) on functional remission and subjective recovery of individuals with schizophrenia.
Method: Individuals with schizophrenia (N = 26) were randomly divided into two groups. The intervention group participated in routine community mental health center (CMHC) services and a total of 24 sessions of mOT three times per week. The control group participated in routine CMHC services only. Data were collected using the Subjective Recovery Assessment Scale and Functional Remission of General Schizophrenia Scale.
Results: An increase was observed in the functional remission and subjective recovery levels of the intervention group after mOT. When the effect size of the change over time between groups was examined, it was determined that mOT was effective in improving functional remission and subjective recovery.
Conclusion: mOT can increase functional remission and subjective recovery of individuals with schizophrenia. Further studies with larger sample sizes and those that evaluate the long-term effects of mOT are needed. [Journal of Psychosocial Nursing and Mental Health Services, xx(xx), xx-xx.].
