Abstract

Purpose: Schizophrenia is a chronic disease that negatively affects person's thought processes, social functions, perception and behaviours. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of attention training on attention level and instrumental daily living activities (IADL) in people diagnosed with Schizophrenia. Materials and Method: Four individuals with Schizophrenia were included in the study. 30 minutes of attention training sessions twice a week for five weeks were provided to the participants. The outcomes of the intervention were assessed by d2 Test of Attention and Lawton-Brody Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale before and after the attention training. Results: At the end of the study, results of the participants' attention tests changed positively. However, there was no statistically significant difference in attention levels and IADL abilities between pre and post-intervention. conclusion: When planning interventions for people diagnosed with schizophrenia, consideration should be given to attention deficits that are directly related to independent living and functioning. Further controlled studies with larger samples are needed to determine optimal interventions and their long-term effectiveness.

Özet

Amaç: Şizofreni, kişinin düşünce süreçlerini, sosyal fonksiyonlarını, algı ve davranışlarını olumsuz etkileyen kronik bir hastalıktır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, dikkat eksikliği olan şizofreni tanılı bireylerde dikkat eğitiminin, dikkat seviyesi ve yardımcı günlük yaşam aktiviteleri (YGYA) üzerine etkisinin incelenmesidir. Gereç ve yöntem: Çalışmaya 4 şizofreni tanılı birey dahil edilmiştir. Katılımcılara 5 hafta boyunca haftada iki gün, günde 30 dakika süren dikkat eğitimi verilmiştir. d2 dikkat testi ve Lawton-Brody Yardımcı Günlük Yaşam Aktiviteleri İndeksi eğitim öncesi ve 5 haftalık eğitim sonrası olmak üzere iki kez uygulanarak müdahalenin sonuçları değerlendirilmiştir. Sonuçlar: Çalışmanın sonucunda katılımcıların dikkat testi sonuçlarında değişimler görülmesine rağmen dikkat seviyeleri ve YGYA becerilerinde istatistiksel olarak fark bulunmamıştır. Tartışma: Şizofreni tanısı almış bireylere yönelik müdahaleler planlanırken, bağımsız yaşam ve işlevsellik ile doğrudan ilişkili olan dikkat bozuklukları göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır. En uygun müdahaleleri ve onların uzun dönem etkilerini belirlemek için, geniş örneklem gruplarıyla daha ileri kontrollü çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
