Summary
Acquisition of health-related problem solving skills was compared in two groups of patients, participating either in (l) a symptom self-management training, or in (2) psychoeducation (a discussion group). In the sample under study the symptom self-management training turned out to be more effective than psychoeducation. Moreover, the level of knowledge acquisition was only slightly related to psychopathological symptoms severity in both groups, both at baseline and on the training completion.
