结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline to Week 26 in the Negative Symptom Assessment-16 (NSA-16) Total Score
时间窗: From baseline to Week 26
The NSA-16 is a semi-structured interview and a validated scale containing 16 items for evaluating negative symptoms of schizophrenia, i.e. the reduction or absence of emotional expression and volitional behaviors normally present in a healthy person. Items are scored based on behaviors during the interview (items 1-4, 6, 7, 9, 11, 15, 16) or previous 7 days (items 5, 8, 10, 12-14) on a 6-point scale from 1 to 6. The NSA-16 total score is the sum of item scores. It can range from 16 to a maximum of 96, with higher scores denoting more severe negative symptoms in schizophrenia.
