Abstract

This study was designed to evaluate effects of Patients Empowerment Program for Schizophrenia (PEPS) on Empowerment, Internalized Stigma, Self-esteem, and Quality of Life, in people with chronic schizophrenia living in a rural community. A non-equivalent control group repeated measures design was used. Participants were 22 persons with chronic schizophrenia enrolled from O Province Mental Health Welfare Center, South Korea. (experimental group= 10, control group = 12). The PEPS was administered to the experimental group, consisting of 16 sessions delivered twice a week for 8 weeks. SPSS/WIN 26.0 was used to analyze the collected data using χ2-test, independent t-test, Fisher's exact test, and repeated measures ANOVA. Upon completion of PEPS, the experimental group showed a significantly increased in Self-esteem (F=6.09, p=.005) and Quality of Life (F=3.37, p=.044) as compared to the control group. However, there was no significant difference between the two groups between Empowerment and Internalized Stigma. The results suggest that the PEPS may be an effective intervention for improving Self-esteem and Quality of Life.

본 연구는 농촌에 거주하는 만성 조현병 대상자에게 조현병 환자를 위한 능력강화프로그램(PEPS)을 제공하고 능력강화, 내재화된 낙인, 자존감 및 삶의 질에 미치는 효과를 파악하기 위한 비동등성 대조군 반복측정설계를 이용한 유사실험연구이다. 연구 대상자는 O지역의 정신건강복지센터에 등록된 만성 조현병 대상자 22명(실험군: 10명, 대조군 12명)이다. 실험군에게는 8주동안 주 2회, 총 16회기로 구성된 PEPS를 제공하였다. SPSS/WIN 26.0을 이용하여 χ2-test, independent t-test, Fisher's exact test 및 repeated measures ANOVA로 수집된 자료를 분석하였다. 연구 결과 실험군은 자존감(F=6.09, p=.005) 및 삶의 질(F=3.37, p=.044)이 대조군에 비해 개선된 것으로 나타났지만, 능력강화와 내재화된 낙인에 유의한 차이가 없었다. 이러한 연구 결과는 PEPS가 대상자의 자존감과 삶의 질을 향상하는데 효과적인 개입이 될 수 있음을 나타낸다.
