E Weldon et al. Psychiatr Q. 1979 Summer.

Abstract

This study compares day hospitalization with traditional outpatient treatment effecting rehospitalization, symptomatology, mood, community, and vocational adjustment for 30 recently discharged schizophrenic patients. Results indicate day hospital patients were significantly more involved in work and training activities, but had no significant difference in the other areas of measurement.
