目前的理论推测和研究证据表明,焦虑水平升高和焦虑应对能力差可能是精神分裂症过程的重要方面。尽管成功的各种行为导向的压力管理技术与非精神病患者,研究这些程序的影响,适用于精神分裂症一直很少。本研究探讨了两种这样的技术,焦虑管理训练(AMT)和应用放松训练(R),对精神分裂症门诊患者的影响。经过6周的训练后,与未接受治疗的等待名单(WL)组Ss(N = 12)相比,AMT组和RS组(N = 27)在标准测量中报告的广泛性焦虑水平显着降低。此外,显著的积极变化,由SS的定期门诊治疗师报告了一些相关的,非目标性的行为。本研究的结果支持短期焦虑管理干预可能对精神分裂症患者的治疗有用的想法。
Current theoretical speculation and research evidence suggest that elevated anxiety levels and poor anxiety coping skills may be important aspects of the schizophrenic process. Despite the success of various behaviorally oriented stress management techniques with nonpsychotic individuals, research on the effects of these programs as applied to schizophrenics has been scarce. The present study examined the effects of two such techniques, Anxiety Management Training (AMT) and Applied Relaxation Training (R), on schizophrenic outpatients. After 6 weeks of training, both the AMT and R Ss (N = 27) reported significantly lower levels of generalized anxiety on a standard measure, as contrasted to non-treated Wait-List (WL) group Ss (N = 12). In addition, significant positive changes were reported by the Ss' regular outpatient therapists on a number of related, non-targeted behaviors. The results of this study support the idea that short-term anxiety management interventions may be useful in the treatment of schizophrenic patients.
