Abstract
Family members of 55 patients with schizophrenia were randomly assigned to a psychoeducational support group or to a control group.

Psychological distress, coping behavior, and family satisfaction did not appear affected by support group participation; nor were support groups associated with lower rehospitalization rates for patients.
