About this study

The primary aim of this project is to establish the acceptability of the PAI (physical activity intervention) to service users by evaluating if participants can be recruited into the study and if they complete the intervention.

Secondary aims are to estimate if, compared with treatment as usual (TAU), the PAI intervention (1) positively impacts on subjects' psychiatric symptoms (2) succeeds in improving cardiovascular fitness performance. In addition, will be considered the impact of the PAI versus TAU on sleep behavior, quality of life, drug consumption, reduces sedentary behaviour and unscheduled readmissions to the department within 30 days and within 7 days after their dismission.
