Abstract

Background/objectives: Visual demonstration by occupational therapists is very common in psychiatric treatment, however, some patients with schizophrenia could not imitate the actions despite the absence of any physical impairments. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to identify how cognitive functions such as attention and cognitive processes in the imitation process is necessary and how these processes were related to the ability to convert this into action (imitation) in patients with schizophrenia.

Method: The participants were patients with schizophrenia with mean age 59.2 (± 11.3) years, 23 were men and 10 were women. The participants were tested for imitation ability and cognitive function, working memory, and motor imagery.

Results: Three subjects achieved full scores in the visual imitation test. However, the median of the total score was 10.0, with many subjects failing to imitate multiple tasks. Imitation learning is associated with duration of illness(t = -4.09, p = .000), mental health(t = -2.30, p = .029), and cognitive function such as the ability to retain visual information(t = -2.97, p = .006), and that these factors are interrelated.

Conclusion: To effectively promote imitation learning in patients with schizophrenia, occupational therapists need to establish teaching methods that make it easier for learners to retain visual information from the early stages of their illness.

精神分裂症患者视觉意象模仿技能与认知功能的关系。
背景/目的:职业治疗师的视觉示范在精神病学治疗中很常见,然而,一些精神分裂症患者尽管没有任何身体障碍,却无法模仿这些动作。因此,本研究的目的是确定精神分裂症患者模仿过程中的注意力和认知过程等认知功能是如何必要的,以及这些过程如何与将其转化为行动(模仿)的能力相关。方法:研究对象为精神分裂症患者,平均年龄59.2(±11.3)岁,男性23例,女性10例。参与者接受了模仿能力、认知功能、工作记忆和运动意象的测试。结果:3名受试者在视觉模仿测试中获得满分。然而,总得分的中位数为10.0,许多受试者无法模仿多个任务。模仿学习与疾病持续时间(t = -4.09, p = .000)、心理健康(t = -2.30, p = .029)和认知功能(如保留视觉信息的能力)有关(t = -2.97, p = .006),并且这些因素是相互关联的。结论:为了有效地促进精神分裂症患者的模仿学习,职业治疗师需要建立教学方法,使学习者更容易从疾病的早期阶段就记住视觉信息。
