A recent study conducted by researchers at Ohio State University examined the metacognitive functioning of individuals with schizophrenia and its impact on social functioning. The study utilized a language coding system to analyze spoken life narratives of individuals with schizophrenia and community controls. Surprisingly, the study found that most aspects of metacognition were not significantly diminished in people with schizophrenia compared to the control group. Additionally, the study found that higher levels of metacognitive functioning in self-reflectivity were associated with poorer self-reported social functioning, while greater metacognitive awareness of others' minds was associated with better performance-based social functioning. These findings highlight the importance of assessing metacognitive functioning through life-story narratives to understand social outcomes and potential resiliency among individuals with serious mental illness.
