Working alliance, daily activities, and emotions in patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders and treating staff: a study with the experience sampling method
Extended hospitalisation is linked to lower WAI-P ratings, due to reduced trust and disengagement. Conversely, greater social interaction and mobility are associated with improved WAI-P and WAI-T ratings, suggesting that social and functional activity strengthens the WA. These findings highlight the importance of interpersonal connection and autonomy in supporting effective therapeutic relationships.
