Abstract

While recreation is impactful for recovery in schizophrenia, no study has examined the effects of schizophrenic symptoms on recreational outcomes. This study examined the determinants of recreational outcomes based on gender. We investigated the relationship between recreational outcomes, positive and negative symptoms, cognitive function, and factors such as negative self-evaluation and evaluation by others. Motivation had a significant impact on both men and women. However, participation in recreational activities was impacted by negative self-assessment for men and evaluations from others for women. The importance of matching strategies based on gender when using recreation therapeutically was emphasized.
