Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究は、入院中の精神病性障害を有する患者のパーソナル・リカバリーの指標の変化について明らかにすることができた。本研究の対象者においては、入院中に精神症状は大幅に改善したが、パーソナル・リカバリー、自己肯定感、自尊感情に有意な変化は見られなかった。しかし、自尊心尺度における肯定的な変化と、パーソナル・リカバリーの指標におけるの間には相関関係などは見られた。この研究では、パーソナル・リカバリーにおける変化と、陰性症状の改善、または自己効力感と自尊心の向上との間に縦断的な相関関係があることが明らかになった。
