Abstract

Negative symptoms (NSs) and cognitive deficits (CDs) negatively affect patients' quality of life with primary psychosis. Our observational study evaluated the percentage of NSs in a group of inpatients of a psychiatric rehabilitation facility and the variation of the interaction with CDs during the COVID-19 pandemic. The results showed a significant correlation between NSs and CDs in the first observation period (PANSS - FSNS p=0.001; BNSS p=0.023; Epitrack p=0.00) and a stabilization of the results between the first and second observation periods (PANSS - FSNS: p=0.094; BNSS p=0.466; Epitrack p=0.026).

Keywords: negative symptoms - primary psychoses - cognitive deficits - psychiatric rehabilitation.
