Twelve predominantly psychotic patients who were at high risk for relapse and rehospitalization participated in a treatment regime that combined medication and supportive and insight-oriented group therapy. The group was studied over a 44-month period during which the same psychiatrist was present. None of the 12 group members required rehospitalization during the study period, and the quality of life and level of functioning significantly improved for most of them. Factors that possibly contributed to the patients' responses are addressed.
12名复发和再次住院风险较高的主要患有精神病的患者参与了一种结合药物治疗以及支持性和洞察导向性团体治疗的治疗方案。在44个月的研究期间对该团体进行了研究，期间同一位精神科医生一直在场。在研究期间，12名团体成员中没有人需要再次住院，而且他们中的大多数人的生活质量和功能水平都有显著改善。文中探讨了可能促成患者这些反应的因素。
