Societal recovery trajectories in people with a psychotic disorder in long term care: a latent class growth analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

For many individuals with a psychotic disorder societal recovery is not accomplished. Research on societal recovery trajectories is mostly focussed on patients with a first episode psychosis.
