103 EFFECT OF EARLY INTERVENTION FOR SCHIZOPHRENIA MODERN LITERATURE RESEARCH

Abstract Background Schizophrenia, as a common mental illness, usually shows relatively hidden symptoms in the early stage, which makes timely intervention particularly important. As an art form rich in emotional expression and cognitive inspiration, modern literature has gradually attracted attention in mental health intervention. The study aims to explore the effect of modern literature on early intervention of schizophrenia, especially its potential in alleviating symptoms, improving cognitive function and emotional expression. Methods The study selected 80 early schizophrenia patients and randomly divided them into an experimental group and a control group, with 40 people in each group. The experimental group received a 12-week modern literature intervention, which included reading, analyzing and discussing literary works, focusing on emotional resonance, cognitive inspiration and self-expression. The control group continued to receive conventional drug treatment and psychological intervention. The study used the Emotional Disorder Scale (EDS) and the Cognitive Function Scale (CFS) to evaluate the patients before and after, and the Clinical Symptoms Scale (CSS) was used to evaluate the improvement of symptoms. Results The results showed that modern literature intervention significantly improved the emotional cognition, positive symptoms, negative symptoms and thought disorder of the patients in the experimental group. Specific data are shown in Table 1. As can be seen from Table 1, the experimental group showed significant improvement in all aspects. The positive symptom score dropped from 31.3 to 22.1, an improvement of 9.2 points (P < 0.05). The negative symptom score dropped from 30.2 to 19.6, an improvement of 10.6 points (P < 0.05). The cognitive function score increased from 56.9 to 72.4, with an improvement of 15.5 points (P < 0.05). The emotional cognition score dropped from 38.5 to 26.1, an improvement of 12.4 points (P < 0.05). In the control group, the improvements in various indicators were smaller. The improvements in positive symptoms, negative symptoms, cognitive function scores, and emotional cognition were only 2.2 points, 0.5 points, 0.8 points, and 1.2 points respectively, none of which reached statistical significance. Discussion Studies have shown that modern literary intervention improves emotional cognition, positive symptoms, negative symptoms, and thought disorders in patients with schizophrenia, and effectively enhances cognitive function. This intervention method can help patients better express emotions, understand others, and improve their thinking and cognitive abilities. Future research can further explore the differences in the intervention effects of different types of literary works on patients with schizophrenia, and provide a more personalized and diversified treatment model for the early intervention of schizophrenia.
