Abstract
Recent studies suggest that the multiple-family group is a preferable vehicle for assisting families and treating and rehabilitating persons with schizophrenia within a psychoeducational clinical framework. This approach is probably the most cost-effective treatment for schizophrenia developed since antipsychotic medication.Keywords
