简要总结
This study is guided by the Formative Method for Adapting Psychotherapy (FMAP), a structured collaborative framework for systematically adapting interventions to enhance their cultural relevance (Hwang, 2009).
This study aims to culturally adapt and field test the Lifestyle Redesign (LSR) program for individuals with schizophrenia and related disorders in the Indian context. The LSR program is a structured, group-based psychosocial intervention originally developed in Hong Kong, focusing on enhancing participation in daily life domains such as leisure, domestic activities, social engagement, and work.
The program consists of 10 weekly group coaching sessions, each lasting 1–2 hours, facilitated by two trained coaches. Given its original development in Hong Kong, a systematic formative cultural adaptation will be undertaken using focus group discussions with service users, caregivers, and mental health professionals to identify contextually relevant modifications. The adapted LSR program will then be field tested in a clinical setting among persons with schizophrenia. Qualitative feedback from participants and facilitators will be analysed to inform further refinement of the intervention and planning of a future randomized controlled trial.
