MeasuresThe variables used in this study include gender, age, type of degree and type of clinical license, years of professional experience, and national affiliation. Participants’ age and years of clinical experience were measured as continuous variables. Gender and national affiliation (US or UK) were measured as dichotomous variables Degree and professional license were measured as categorical variables. Were limited to forced choice responses or Likert-type scales.The primary purpose of this survey was to assess use and views of CBT. Seven additional treatment modalities were included among the variables in order to neutralize demand characteristics. These modalities were ECT, family therapy, humanistic/existential psychotherapy, medication, narrative therapy, personal therapy, and psychodynamic psychotherapy. Narrative therapy, originally developed in Australia and New Zealand, is a psychological approach emphasizing the idea that illness symptoms can be redefined contextually through the construction of personalized stories about identity and illness. Personal therapy, developed in the US, is based on the underlying pathophysiology of schizophrenia and focuses on affect regulation and coping skills.The survey instrument assessed two broad domains in the treatment of schizophrenia: clinical practice and treatment efficacy. In the domain of clinical practice, caseload composition was assessed as a dichotomous variable. Current clinical practices were assessed by having participants record a dichotomous variable for each treatment modality.In the domain of treatment efficacy, participants answered questions that assessed beliefs about efficacy and research findings. First, participants were asked to estimate the real-world effectiveness of each treatment modality. Then participants were asked whether research had been conducted on the efficacy of each treatment modality, and what the research findings were for each treatment modality. Finally, participants estimated the likelihood of recovery from schizophrenia.
