- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The PANSS (Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale) (Kay, Opler, & Lindenmayer, 1989; https://doi.org/10.1192/S0007125000291514) is a semi-structured clinical interview that records the schizophrenic symptoms of the last seven days on a positive, negative and a general psychopathology scale. The difference in the positive items (from T0 to T1), which record the delusional ideas (P1: delusional ideas, P5: ideas of grandeur, P6: mistrust/persecutory ideas), serve as the primary target parameters in this study. <br><br>The PANSS is an established scale in schizophrenia research. The PANSS is administered at the pre- and post-survey of the intervention period (Online-MCT/waiting list).
