Abstract

This study assesses how insight influences depression and Quality of Life (QOL) in schizophrenia-spectrum outpatients and whether depression modifies the relationship between insight and QOL. 141 patients with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorders with stable disease completed the EUROQOL-5D-5L and SQLS-R4, SAI-E and Calgary scales. Univariate and multivariate linear regression models were fitted to assess whether insight was related to QOL and/or depression. Higher levels of insight were (inversely) only related to EuroQOL-health but showed no relationship with depression. Depression showed an inversely strong relationship with EuroQOL-health. The relationship between clinical insight and QOL does not seem to be associated with depression.
