Efficacy of Metacognitive Training for Schizophrenia - a Study Protocol

"MCT is a group program with eight modules referring to common cognitive and biases in solving problems in schizophrenia. The following topics of MCT are: attribution blaming and taking credit (module 1), jumping to conclusions (modules 2 and 7), changing beliefs (module 3), deficits in theory of mind and social cognition (modules 4 and 6), overconfidence in (memory) errors (module 5) and depression and low self-esteem (module 8). Each session lasts 45 to 60 minutes and follows a protocol defined in the manual Metacognitive Training for Psychosis (MCT) that is currently available in 35 languages (available in www.uke.de/mkt)."

In both groups will be maintained the TAU.
