Effectiveness of Integrated Neurocognitive Therapy compared to Physical Exercise and Treatment As Usual in schizophrenia: Results from a multi-center randomized controlled study
The results of this study confirm the effectiveness of cognitive rehabilitation, and in particular of INT as an evidence-based treatment for outpatients diagnosed with schizophrenia. Even though the effects on the outcomes in this study observed for PE were not statistically significant, the PE intervention might represent a valid approach in rehabilitation settings.
