| Popis: | Six-session educational and support groups were held for two sets of parents (32 in all) who had an adolescent schizophrenic child. Results indicate no significant increases in knowledge about the disorder following the group (probably due to the relatively high scores obtained at the outset) but gains seem to have been made in ability to handle the teenage patient at home. All parents commented on how they had benefited from the supportive aspect of the group. Future developments of these groups are discussed. |
