[The effects of a recovery education program on rehabilitation motivation, symptoms, and function for schizophrenic patients].

PURPOSE
This study investigated the effects of a recovery education program on rehabilitation motivation, symptoms, and function for schizophrenic patients.


METHOD
The study employed a quasi-experimental design. Participants for the study were 27 patients with schizophrenia, 14 in the experimental group and the other 13 in the control group. Data were analyzed by using the SPSS/WIN 11.5 program with Fisher's exact test, t-test, and Repeated measures ANOVA.


RESULTS
After a 7 week intervention, participants in the recovery education program group reported increased rehabilitation motivation and function scores, which was significantly different from those in the control group.


CONCLUSION
A recovery education program was effective improving rehabilitation motivation and function for schizophrenic patients. Therefore, this program is recommended as a rehabilitation strategy for schizophrenic patients.
