Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to identify factors, including resilience, that influence the quality of life of schizophrenia patients.
Methods: Subjects included thirty-eight patients with schizophrenia. Each subject was administered questionnaires regarding their socio-demographic characteristics, resilience, quality of life, and social supports. Depressed mood severity and psychopathology of each patient were determined. The Korean version of the 4th revision of Schizophrenia Quality of Life assessment and the Korean modification of the Scale to Measure Subjective Well-being under Neuroleptic treatment were used to assess quality of life.
Results: Resilience, occupation, income, social supports, psychopathology, and depressed mood were correlated with quality of life. Multiple regression analysis results indicated that depressed mood and income have an effect on quality of life (R2=0.526, p=0.000). Moreover, resilience, social supports, and depressed mood also contributed to quality of life (R2=0.635, p=0.000).
Conclusion: The result of this study indicate that psychosocial factors including resilience should be considered when caring for schizophrenia patients.
