This article describes a qualitative research project, based on a grounded theory design, that addressed the processes involved in how individuals with schizophrenia were able to use their own abilities to form a self-authored community. The article offers a perspective on community integration that takes into account the importance of relationships, and in the case of individuals with schizophrenia, the importance of day-to-day relationships. The assumption is that the constitution of community is an outcome of the processes involved in learning and practicing being social (Cohen 1985, p. 15). These relationships do not necessarily have to be strong or numerous in order for community integration to be realized. In this article it is argued that an element in the establishment of such relationships for individuals with schizophrenia is the ready availability of others on a day-to-day basis. Relationships and friendships grew for individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia when such access occurred in a place where the context of what was likely to happen in an interaction was relatively well understood.
本文描述了一个基于扎根理论设计的定性研究项目，该项目探讨了精神分裂症患者如何利用自身能力形成一个自我主导的社区所涉及的过程。本文提供了一种社区融合的观点，该观点考虑到了人际关系的重要性，对于精神分裂症患者而言，还考虑到了日常人际关系的重要性。其假设是，社区的构成是学习和践行社交过程的结果（科恩，1985年，第15页）。为了实现社区融合，这些人际关系不一定非得深厚或众多。本文认为，对于精神分裂症患者来说，建立此类人际关系的一个要素是他人在日常生活中随时可及。当在一个互动中可能发生的情况相对容易理解的地方出现这种接触时，被诊断患有精神分裂症的个体就会发展人际关系和友谊。
