Abstract
Summary The role of cognition as one aspect of the stress‐vulnerability model of schizophrenia is discussed, and the use of cognitive therapy reviewed. A holistic approach to the development of schizophrenia is explored. The stress vulnerability model is explained and the way in which individuals suffering from schizophrenia are vulnerable to attentional, perceptual and cognitive difficulties, are discussed. Using case examples, it is demonstrated that the use of cognitive behavioural techniques can be used by nurses to effectively reduce client problems associated with schizophrenia.
