Metacognitive reflection and insight therapy (MERIT) for patients with schizophrenia
Overview
This randomized controlled trial evaluates Metacognitive Reflection and Insight Therapy (MERIT) for individuals with schizophrenia, focusing on improving metacognition across four domains. The study compares forty MERIT sessions against treatment as usual, analyzing outcomes such as psychotic symptomatology, quality of life, and social functioning. Results indicate that while both groups showed initial improvements in metacognition, the MERIT group maintained gains at follow-up, particularly in self-reflection and mastery. The resource notes no significant effects on secondary measures and highlights high dropout rates, suggesting a need for further research.
