The Effects of a Solution-Focused Approach on Psychosocial Adjustment and Treatment Compliance in Individuals Diagnosed With Schizophrenia

The solution-focused nursing intervention applied to the experimental group in the study was planned as individual sessions, consisting of one session per week, lasting a total of six weeks. The interventions were based on the principles of solution-focused brief therapy, focusing on the individual's strengths, past coping experiences, and current resources. The interviews aimed to identify exceptions, build positive future expectations, set small but achievable goals, strengthen hope, and increase the individual's ability to utilize their internal resources. Each session used structured open-ended questions, scaling techniques, and future-oriented solution scenarios to support the individual's psychosocial adjustment and motivation for treatment.
