About This Schizophrenia Disorders Study in Miami

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a psychosocial intervention called iTEST for people with psychotic disorders that targets introspective accuracy, or the ability to accurately gauge ones abilities. iTEST combines daily cognitive training on a mobile device with coaching that addresses recovery goals. In this trial, we will randomize people to one of two interventions conditions, iTEST or a control condition that receives coaching and cognitive training that does not emphasize introspective accuracy. Both interventions will take place over 12 weeks and participants will be asked to complete assessments at baseline, 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks. The primary outcome of the study is community functioning. Participants will be from three metropolitan areas: San Diego, Dallas, or Miami.
