To investigate the effect of group therapy by nurses on chronic psychiatric patients, 100 chronic psychiatric patients between the ages of 30 and 59, hospitalized on two regressed, continued care wards and one community care preparation ward at the Veterans Administration Hospital, Augusta, Georgia, were paired, using the variables of age, diagnosis, and number and duration of hospitalizations, and assigned to five control and five experimental groups (ten patients per group). Experimental subjects attended group therapy sessions, led by two nurses, twice a week; control subjects did not. All subjects were evaluated by two nursing assistants on the NOSIE-30 scale prior to group therapy, after ten sessions, and at the end of 20 sessions. Paired t-tests were computed on pre- and postdata for six factors. Data from an evaluation scale of the most regressed ward indicated leader-patient interaction. Sociogram evaluation revealed 79 percent positive interactions. Topics most frequently mentioned were nature in regard to delusional systems and interpersonal relations in the hospital and home. Findings supported the use of group therapy with chronic regressed psychiatric patients.
为研究护士主导的团体治疗对慢性精神病患者的影响，选取了100名年龄在30至59岁之间的慢性精神病患者，这些患者在佐治亚州奥古斯塔退伍军人管理局医院的两个退行性持续护理病房和一个社区护理准备病房住院。根据年龄、诊断、住院次数和住院时长等变量进行配对，分为五个对照组和五个实验组（每组10名患者）。实验组患者每周参加两次由两名护士主持的团体治疗课程；对照组患者不参加。在团体治疗前、十次治疗后以及二十次治疗结束时，由两名护理助理使用NOSIE - 30量表对所有受试者进行评估。对六个因素的治疗前后数据进行配对t检验。来自最退行性病房的评估量表数据显示了领导者与患者的互动。社会关系图评估显示79%的互动为积极互动。最常提及的话题是关于妄想系统的自然因素以及医院和家庭中的人际关系。研究结果支持对慢性退行性精神病患者使用团体治疗。
