PSP was a clinical scoring tool that was used for personal and social function assessment in schizophrenia subjects, and the score ranged between 1 and 100. The scale defined a continuous functional status, from overall function impaired (completely lack of independent basic functions, survival is significantly dangerous) to function well. The scale takes four functional dimensions into account: a) social useful activities, including work and study, b) the relationship between the individual and society, c) self-care, and d) disturbing and aggression

Treatment Emergent Symptom Scale (TESS) is a checklist including common adverse event in psychotic treatment.

each item rate from 0( no) to 4 (heavy)

ECG testing should be performed in a quiet non-interference (such as TV, mobile) environment for the subjects. Before testing ECG the subjects should rest in the supine position for at least 5 minutes and should be limited to conversation or physical activity. Twelve-lead ECG was recorded by 25 mm/sec paper speed, measuring RR, PR, QRS and QT intervals

The frequency of adverse events in the treatment period

Calgary Depression Scale of Schizophrenia is a scale to assess the depression symptom in schizophrenia patients, It comprises of 9 items, each item has 4 grade(0, 1, 2, 3), the higher score means more serious depression. Maximize score is 27 points. Above 6 points reflect has depression symptom.

Liver function tests are groups of blood tests that provide information about the state of a patient's liver. In this case includes alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST).

Renal function tests includes blood tests that provide information about blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine.

Using blood glucose monitoring to perform fingerprick type of glucose meter.

Liver function tests are groups of blood tests that provide information about high density lipoprotein (HDL), low density lipoprotein (LDL) and triglyceride.

The test is considered to measure selective attention, cognitive flexibility and processing speed, and it is used as a tool in the evaluation of executive functions. The color of the character should be named both in undisturbed and disturbed condition. The time spent in both cases will be compared

Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuro-psychological Status (RBANS), The RBANS provides SS based on same-aged peers for 5 indexes of neuropsychological functioning: Attention, Language, Visuospatial-Construction, Immediate Memory, and Delayed Memory . These indexes combine to compute a total scale score of cognitive functioning

Interpersonal Reactivity Index. The IRI was designed to assess empathy.It contains 4 sub-scales, each with 7 items. It uses a 5-item Likert scale with two anchors (A = Does not describe me well; E= Describes me very well). Responses can be averaged (using 0 to 4 or 1 to 5 endpoints) or summed (using 0 to 28 or 7 to 35 ranges). The IRI is a continuous measure of empathy in normal populations and not a categorical ,measure ("high empathy" versus "low empathy").

Computer-morphed images derived from the facial features of real individuals, each showing a specific emotion, are displayed on the screen, one at a time. Each face is displayed for 200ms and then immediately covered up to prevent residual processing of the image. The participant must select which emotion the face displayed from 6 options (sadness, happiness, fear, anger, disgust or surprise). The outcome measures for ERT cover percentages and numbers correct or incorrect and overall response latencies, which can be looked at either across individual emotions or across all emotions at once.

Toronto Alexithymia Scale, the TAS is a 20-item instrument that commonly used measures of alexithymia. It is a self-report scale that is comprised of 20 items. Items are rated using a 5-point Likert scale whereby 1 = strongly disagree and 5 = strongly agree. There are 5 items that are negatively keyed (items 4, 5, 10, 18 and 19). The total alexithymia score is the sum of responses to all 20 items, while the score for each subscale factor is the sum of the responses to that subscale. The TAS-20 uses cutoff scoring: equal to or less than 51 = non-alexithymia, equal to or greater than 61 = alexithymia. Scores of 52 to 60 = possible alexithymia.
