Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
<p>The illness management and recovery scale-patient self score version will be<br /><br>the primary outcome measure. This scale has 15 items and is completed by<br /><br>patients themselves. With this scale the effects of IMR in various domains can<br /><br>be measured (Mueser et al 2004; Salyers 2007; Hasson-Ohayon et al. 2008; Dutch<br /><br>translation De Vries 2011). The consumer and clinician versions of the Illness<br /><br>Management and Recovery (IMR) scales have adequate psychometric properties. </p><br>
