      • Tarrier 2004 studied individuals with schizophrenia who received CBT either shortly after their diagnosis or standard care
      • 18 months later the CBT group had the same relapse rate as those with the standard care
      • However the individuals with CBT appeared to be less negatively affected by their symptoms than those in the standard care group.
