简要总结
This study was designed to examine the effects of peer education-supported psychosocial skills training on stigma perceptions, social functionality and insight levels of chronic psychiatric patients followed up in a community mental health center.
The research was planned as a mixed method study conducted in a randomized controlled experimental study design and a qualitative study design. With the findings obtained, it is aimed to increase the social functionality of the patients, to increase the level of insight and to reduce the perception of stigma, and to close an important gap in the literature, thanks to peer education-supported psychosocial skills training.

结局指标
主要结局
Functionality (Social Functioning Assessment Scale)
时间窗: 6 Weeks
This scale evaluates 19 items and four sub-dimensions in general in patients with schizophrenia. Among the factors, interpersonal explanations and entertainment consist of seven items, self-care seven items, independent living needs four items, and work-life one item. The scores that can be obtained from the scale are between 19 and 57, and a high score means that social functioning measures are high. It is expected that there will be an increase in the functionality levels of the experimental groups.
Stigmatization (Self-Stigma Scale)
时间窗: 6 Weeks
It is a 3-factor scale consisting of 17 items for patients evaluating self-stigmatization or internalized stigma, concealment of illness and perception of worthlessness in individuals with mental illness. A five-point Likert-type scale was created as "1=not at all suitable for me, 2=somewhat appropriate, 3=moderately appropriate, 4=generally appropriate, 5=completely appropriate". As the score obtained from the scale increases, the self-stigmatization of the patients increases. The Cronbach's alpha correlation coefficient value of the scale is 0.93, indicating high reliability. It is expected that the stigma perceptions of the experimental groups will decrease.
Insight (Beck Cognitive Insight Scale)
时间窗: 6 Weeks
The Turkish validity and reliability study of the scale developed to assess cognitive insight was conducted. The scale, which is a four-point Likert type, consists of 15 items and has 2 sub-dimensions "self-confidence" and "self-evaluation". The scoring system of the scale consists of "disagree" 0 points, "somewhat agree" 1 point, "mostly agree" 2 points, "strongly agree" 3 points. The total (composite) score of the scale is obtained by subtracting the self-evaluation items (1,3,4,5,6,8,12,14,15) from the self-confidence item scores (2,7,9,10,11,13). The total score range of the scale is between -18 and 27 points. A high score indicates a high level of insight. In the reliability study of the Turkish version of the scale, the internal consistency Cronbach's alpha coefficient was found to be 0.68. It is expected that there will be an increase in the insight levels of the experimental groups.
