Abstract

The article examines the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy of schizophrenia. According to the authors, cognitive behavioral techniques have shown grounds for optimism that they can complement pharmacological and other psychosocial techniques in schizophrenia. The author stress that these techniques challenge conventional belief about delusions and hallucinations by presenting evidence that they can be amenable to reasoning approaches.
