Overview

Retrospective cohort examines caregiver-patient outcomes, revealing FPI benefits for social functioning.

Key Points

  • This study aims to understand how varying levels of family-based psychosocial interventions influence social functioning in individuals with schizophrenia.
  • Analyzed data from a retrospective cohort of 812 adults with schizophrenia.
  • Participants were categorized based on exposure to family-based psychosocial interventions.
  • Multivariable regression models adjusted for demographic and clinical covariates were utilized.
  • Higher FPI exposure correlated with significant improvements in social functioning (p < 0.001).
  • Greater intensity of FPI was linked to reduced caregiver burden (β = −0.28, p < 0.001).
  • High-exposure participants were 2.11 times more likely to show meaningful functional improvements (aOR = 2.11, 95% CI: 1.41–3.16).
