In this study, we explored the 14-year effect of psychoeducational family intervention for patients with schizophrenia in a Chinese rural area.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0033291715000197_sec_a2\" sec-type=\"methods\"><jats:title>Method<\/jats:title><jats:p>The data from a cluster randomized control trial (CRCT) study of psychoeducational family intervention in a 14-year follow-up was analyzed. All patients with schizophrenia (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a0326) who participated in the CRCT drawn from six townships in Xinjin County of Chengdu in 1994, of whom 238 (73.0%) who were still alive, and their informants were followed up in 2008.

The psychoeducational family intervention group had a significantly higher rate of antipsychotic medication and a higher level of work ability than other two groups. The control group had a significantly higher rate of never-treated (26.0%) than psychoeducational family intervention group (6.5%).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0033291715000197_sec_a4\" sec-type=\"conclusion\"><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Psychoeducational family intervention might be still effective in the 14-year follow-up, especially in patients\u2019 treatment adherence\/compliance and social functioning. Psychoeducational family intervention might be more effective in places where family members frequently participated in patients\u2019 care and had a lower level of knowledge on mental illness. Family intervention should be considered when making mental health policy and planning mental health services.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0033291715000197","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,2,17]],"date-time":"2015-02-17T06:23:58Z","timestamp":1424154238000},"page":"2197-2204","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":46,"title":["The effectiveness of psychoeducational family intervention for patients with schizophrenia in a 14-year follow-up study in a Chinese rural area"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"45","author":[{"given":"M.-S.","family":"Ran","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"C.
