Social Psychiatry and Psychiatric Epidemiology, 08/18/09
Alenius M et al. – Better treatment outcomes appear to be associated with better insight into illness, higher knowledge of warning signs and better coping strategies.
Methods- A naturalistic study was performed using patient interviews and information gathered from patient drug charts.
- Apart from the rating scales used for classification of treatment response (CANSEPT method), the SPKS knowledge of illness and drugs rating scale was utilized.
- In the group of patients in functional remission (FR; n = 38), 37% had insight into their illness as compared to 10% among those not in functional remission (non–FR; n = 78; P < 0.01).
- As much as 23% of the non–FR group had no strategy for responding to warning signs versus 8% in the FR group (P < 0.05).
