EEG Outcomes From Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Psychosis
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Psychosis for Psychotic Disorders and Schizophrenia and Related Disorders. Completed, enrolled 20 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Despite overwhelming evidence for neurocognitive and neurophysiological factors involved in the etiology of psychosis, these factors have never been examined as mechanisms of improvement from CBTp. The first aim in the present study is to examine neurophysiological outcomes from CBTp using electroencephalography (EEG). The second aim is to examine neurocognitive outcomes from CBTp. This is an open-label pilot study. Twenty participants will receive CBTp and will be assessed at baseline and after 4 months.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
CBT will be delivered according to an established manual that the PI has previously used successfully for in-person treatment. Treatment will consist of individual sessions with a psychologist employed by the University of Toronto for 1-hour per week for 6-months, or by one of the listed clinical graduate students under his supervision. All treatment will be delivered in-person. This treatment will be delivered in addition to usual care and no changes to usual care will be required.
