A pilot study, a sensorimotor treatment program, was conducted that involved five subjects. The subjects ranged in age from 23 to 49 and all carried a diagnosis of schizophrenia. Length of hospitalization ranged from 3 years to 30 years with only brief interruptions. Patients were evaluated before treatment, after six weeks of treatment, and six weeks after termination of treatment. Evaluation procedures used were: DRAW-A-PERSON Test; NOSIE; Posture Evaluation; and the Step Test. Results showed a decrease in overt psychotic behavior that did not last after sensorimotor treatment was discontinued; improved posture and gait in most patients; and improved body concept. There were no significant changes in pulse, blood pressure, or respiration rates.
进行了一项试点研究，即一个感觉运动治疗项目，涉及五名受试者。受试者年龄在23岁至49岁之间，均被诊断患有精神分裂症。住院时间从3年到30年不等，仅有短暂中断。在治疗前、治疗六周后以及治疗结束六周后对患者进行评估。使用的评估程序包括：画人测试；护士观察量表住院病人版；姿势评估；以及台阶试验。结果显示，明显的精神病行为有所减少，但感觉运动治疗停止后这种减少并未持续；大多数患者的姿势和步态有所改善；身体概念也有所改善。脉搏、血压或呼吸频率没有显著变化。
