O9.8. USING APPROPRIATE OUTCOMES WHEN EVALUATING COGNITIVE BEHAVIOR THERAPY FOR PSYCHOSIS (CBTP) FOR PATIENTS WITH SCHIZOPHRENIA IN AN INPATIENT SETTING: TRENDS OBSERVED IN CLINICAL PRACTICE

摘要

Cognitive behavior therapy for psychosis (CBTp) has been used with patients with schizophrenia for well over fifty years. Previous evaluations of CBTp have emphasized change in global scores of psychosis as the primary (if not the only) outcome, neglecting evaluation of change in patient distress and functioning. This method of practice is inconsistent with the theory and aims of the interventions used in CBTp, particularly from a recovery perspective.
