This study examined clients who were admitted to a mental health respite program in the first 3 months of 2011 in order to identify the ability of the program to reduce symptom distress and to explore related psychosocial factors. Participants were provided with self-report questionnaires that included measurements of demographics, mental health status, symptom severity, and program satisfaction. Results indicate a significant improvement in symptom distress (p < 0.05), mental health confidence (p < 0.1), and self-esteem (p < 0.05) from admission to discharge. No change was detected in largely external measurements.
本研究调查了 2011 年前 3 个月入住心理健康暂息项目的客户，以确定该项目减轻症状困扰的能力，并探讨相关的社会心理因素。研究对象填写了一份自我报告问卷，内容包括人口统计学、心理健康状况、症状严重程度和项目满意度的测量。结果表明，从入院到出院，症状困扰（p<0.05）、心理健康信心（p<0.1）和自尊（p<0.05）都有显著改善。而在很大程度上受外部因素影响的测量指标则没有变化。
