Brief Summary

Social cognition and interaction training (SCIT), a group-based treatment that aims to improve both processing social information and functioning, may be an effective treatment for enhancing the social skills of people with schizophrenia. This study will compare the effectiveness of Social cognition and interaction training (SCIT) versus treatment as usual (ETP) in helping people with schizophrenia improve their social cognition and social functioning so specially on negative symptoms. Many studies show a connection between negative symptom and social cognition in schizophrenia.
