Current Primary Outcome Measures ICMJE |
Primary outcome [ Time Frame: 12 months ] The primary outcome is the binary indicator "Participating steadily for at least 50% of the 12 month follow-up in competitive employment or/and mainstream education". Days in competitive employment or/and mainstream education will be assessed monthly. Competitive employment is defined as jobs that anyone can apply for regardless of disability status. It comprises part and full-time positions, as well as seasonal or temporary positions depending upon the business needs of the employer. Mainstream education is defined in accordance with OECD as educational programs that are certificating or rather degree bearing and open to the general public.

Official Title ICMJE | Enhancing Educational and Vocational Recovery in Adolescents and Young Adults With Early Psychosis Through Supported Employment and Education (SEE): A Randomized Controlled Trial. Acronym: SEEearly | ||||
Brief Summary | Psychotic disorders often develop a chronic course with devastating consequences for individuals, families, and societies usually with first onset during adolescence and early adulthood. Early intervention programs, which provide intensive, phase specific, psychosocial, and pharmacological treatment for people in the first five years after the initial psychotic episode (early psychosis) can significantly improve the outcome and are therefore strongly recommended in national and international guidelines. However, most early intervention programs in people with early psychosis still focus on improving symptoms and relapse prevention, rather than targeting educational and vocational recovery, although engagement in work and education is a high priority for young people with early psychosis and reduces the social disability associated with the disorder. The aim of the present study is to explore the effects of Supported Employment and Education (SEE) following the Individual Placement and Support (IPS) model in people with early psychosis. The investigators compare treatment as usual (TAU) in an outpatient psychiatric setting to TAU plus SEE. | ||||

Intervention ICMJE | Other: Individual Placement and Support (IPS)
IPS is an evidence-based practice for helping people with severe mental illness to gain and maintain competitive employment or/and mainstream education with nine well defined key principles that can be reliably assessed by the IPS Fidelity Scale for Young Adults. Interventions range from engagement techniques (i.e. motivational interviewing) to individualized education/employment searches and from experience-based educational/employment assessment to benefits in counseling/work incentives planning. |
