The vast majority of research on social cognition in schizophrenia has revealed that de?cits in social cognitive abilities (social perception, emotional perception, theory of mind, and attribution style) are evident in schizophrenia. And such abilities are linked to a variety of domains of functional outcome. Social-Cognition Enhancing Rehabilitation Program-Revised (SERP-R) for schizophrenia is designed for enhancing social cognitive ability including the four social cognitive abilities. The purpose of this study was to test the efficacy of SERP-R for schizophrenia. A total of 28 patients with stable schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder were randomly assigned to either treatment (SERP-R+TAU, N = 17) or control group (TAU, N = 11) for 48 weeks. Both groups were assessed at the beginning and the end of the program. There was a significant group effect on the pre-test assessment of the interpersonal ability, but there was no significant group effect on the post-test assessment. There was a significant group-by-time effect on the K-SCRT-R, demonstrating that the treatment group showed higher performance than the TAU group. It was indicated that the SERP-R produced improvement in the social cognitive ability in chronic schizophrenia. There was also possibility that the SERP-R might protect from further deterioration of social functioning in chronic schizophrenia. Implications and limitations were discussed.
