The Dynamic Influences of Social Factors on Schizophrenia Prognosis

Started June 20, 2024

Abstract or project description

This project will be a research paper which will focus on the value and examine the importance of three main factors contributing to the prognosis of schizophrenia, including practical support surrounding treatment from their social networks, the level of understanding and knowledge of those they are interacting with, and the settings to which they engage in socially. The rationale behind this analysis is to be able to examine the impact of how having these social factors provide the needed support for those with schizophrenia, which later would impact social integration, levels of social autonomy, and ultimately a better quality of life surrounding social interaction later on from the support that they have been provided with previously. The conclusions drawn from this paper will increase awareness to the varying impacts of social factors in the prognosis of schizophrenia.
