Metacognitive Skills Training and Computerized Cognitive Remediation among Individuals with First-Episode Psychosis: Influence on Social Cognition.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Metacognitive skills training (MST) is often integrated into cognitive remediation programs for psychosis. Social cognition - the mental processes underlying social perception and behavior - is robustly related to outcomes in psychosis and is increasingly addressed with targeted treatments. Though metacognition and social cognition are related constructs, little is known about how MST may influence social cognition among individuals with psychosis participating in broad-based, non-social cognitive remediation.

Methods

Individuals with first-episode psychosis who completed six months of metacognitive remediation (MCR; n=12) were compared to a historical control group who received six months of computerized cognition remediation (CCR; n=10) alone (ClinicalTrials.gov
