T235. SELF ASSESSMENT OF SOCIAL COGNITIVE ABILITY IN SCHIZOPHRENIA: ASSOCIATION WITH SOCIAL COGNITIVE TEST PERFORMANCE INFORMANT ASSESSMENTS OF SOCIAL COGNITIVE ABILITY AND EVERYDAY OUTCOMES

摘要

BackgroundImpairments in self-assessment are commonly found in people with schizophrenia and impairments in introspective accuracy (IA) predict impaired functional outcome. previous studies have suggested mis-estimation of cognitive and functional skills predict impairment in everyday functioning at least as much as ability scores. In this study, we examined self-assessment of social cognitive ability and related these self-assessments to assessments of social cognition from informants, to performance on tests of social cognitive ability, and to everyday outcomes. The difference between self-reported social cognitive abilities and informant ratings was our measure of IA.
