The goal of the proposed project is to develop and pilot a mobile Self-Management of
Schizophrenia (SOS) system that will administer interventions targeting persistent symptoms
of psychosis, social dysfunction, and poor medication adherence, with the long-term goal of
creating a widely-available system that can be deployed by users as needed, in their own
environments. The hypothesis is that this intervention group will show stronger improvement
in the areas of psychiatric systems, social function, and medication adherence compared to
treatment as usual.
