What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change scores of Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES)

    The Chinese version of Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) was implemented as self-esteem measures. The total score ranged from 10 to 40, with higher scores reflecting higher levels of self-esteem.

    Measured: 3 times: 1 to 2 weeks before intervention, 1 day after intervention and at 1 month after intervention

  2. Change scores of General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES)

    The Chinese version of General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES) consisted of 10 items, assessing optimistic self-beliefs to cope with a variety of difficult demands in life. The total score ranged from 10 to 40, with higher scores indicating more self-efficacy.

    Measured: 3 times: 1 to 2 weeks before intervention, 1 day after intervention and at 1 month after intervention

  3. Change scores of Schizophrenia Quality of Life Scale Revision 4 (SQLS-R4)

    The Chinese version of Schizophrenia Quality of Life Scale Revision 4 (SQLS-R4) was administered to measure subjective quality of life. The total scores ranged from 33-165, with higher scores indicating comparatively lower quality of life.

    Measured: 3 times: 1 to 2 weeks before intervention, 1 day after intervention and at 1 month after intervention

  4. Change scores of Internalized Stigma of Mental Illness (ISMIS)

    The Chinese version of Internalized Stigma of Mental Illness (ISMIS) consists of 29 items incorporated in five domains: alienation, stereotype endorsement, discrimination experience, social withdrawal, and stigma resistance. The total scores range from 29-116. The higher scores on the ISMIS indicates more severe internalized stigmatization.

    Measured: 3 times: 1 to 2 weeks before intervention, 1 day after intervention and at 1 month after intervention
