Abstract
Purpose
This study was to examine the effect of a web-based education program for schizophrenic patients in order to identify symptoms, facilitate medication and prevent recurrence. Method: The design of this study was a quasi experimental research with nonequivalent control group, pretest-posttest design. The subjects of this study were inpatients in the psychiatric day hospitals in Busan; 14 schizophrenic patients for the web-based education group (Exp.I); 14 schizophrenic patients for the web-based education with face -to- face education (Exp.II); and 16 schizophrenic patients for the face -to- face education as control group (Con. G). The data were collected from November 5th 2007 to January 28th 2008 and were analyzed with $chi^2$-test, ANOVA, ANCOVA and Bonferroni test in SPSS Win 11.0. Results: After receiving education, each with different methods, the Exp.I group attained the highest learning achievement in the knowledge of medication and symptom management. In addition, the Exp.I group and Exp.II group attained the lower scores in the relapse warning symptoms than the control group. There were significant differences among the three groups. Conclusions: A web-based learning program for medication and symptom management education is an effective rehabilitation program that reduces the relapse rate of schizophrenic patients.
