摘要: We tried to verify whether the reformulated Learned Helplessness Model and its more fully articulated form, Hopelessness Theory of Depression, were adequate predict symptoms social functioning (SF) in persons with schizophrenia-spectrum disorders by comparing a clinical group (n = 25) non-clinical one 30). Bivariate correlations multiple linear regressions conducted assess relationships between Attribution Styles Questionnaire (ASQ), variables, SF within group. Differences groups found for most attributional dimensions. A “pessimistic style” predicted depression An unstable attribution bias positive symptoms. General psychopathology global style 50p variance general SF. The was suitable regardless psychotic may be useful schizophrenia spectrum disorders. Clinical theoretical implications discussed.
