Summary

This study tested a program called Metacognitive Training (MCT) in 18 adults with schizophrenia, major depression, or bipolar disorder in Taiwan. Over four weeks, participants attended eight group sessions designed to help them recognize and adjust unhelpful thinking patterns. The goal was to see if MCT could reduce symptoms like delusions, depression, and anxiety, and improve daily functioning. Results are expected to show improvements, but larger studies are needed to confirm.
