Abstract

A psycho-education programme for people with psychosis has been delivered across forensic services for years. A multi-site randomised controlled trial was carried out over a three and a half year period, to review the effectiveness of the programme. A range of psychometric instruments were used to measure the following: insight; knowledge of psychosis; general mental health, including depression, quality of life, and social behaviour. Results from (n = 81) indicate a significant improvement in knowledge and empathy. An improvement was also noted in the measures of insight, mental health, and quality of life, although they did not reach significance. In conclusion, psycho-education has a place in forensic clinical practice. It is recommended that psycho-education programmes are used across the forensic network as part of a package of care, to improve the patient experience and reduce the likelihood of re-offending.

一项探索精神病洞察力的随机对照试验;心理教育项目对法医群体洞察力的影响

针对精神病患者的心理教育方案已在法医服务部门实施多年。在三年半的时间里进行了一项多地点随机对照试验，以审查该计划的有效性。一系列心理测量工具被用来测量以下方面:洞察力;精神病知识;一般心理健康，包括抑郁症、生活质量和社会行为。(n = 81)的结果表明知识和同理心有显著改善。在洞察力、心理健康和生活质量方面也有改善，尽管它们没有达到显著水平。总之，心理教育在法医临床实践中占有一席之地。建议在整个法医网络中使用心理教育计划，作为一揽子护理的一部分，以改善患者体验并减少再次犯罪的可能性。
