Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of cognitive behavioral therapy-based psychoeducation provided to individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia on internalized stigma and functional remission. The study was conducted based on the quasi-experimental design with pretest-posttest control group with 100 individuals, who were diagnosed with schizophrenia, in a Community Mental Health Center between September 2020 and June 2021. It was determined that after the cognitive behavioral therapy-based psychoeducation, the internalized stigma level decreased and the functional remission level increased in the experimental group compared with the control group. In the study, it was determined that the experimental and control groups had low levels of functional remission and high levels of internalized stigma before the cognitive behavioral therapy-based psychoeducation, and the functional remission levels increased and the internalized stigma levels decreased in the experimental group compared with the control group after the cognitive behavioral therapy-based psychoeducation.
