Abstract
This study focused on application and examination of the goal attainment scale(GAS) to participants diagnosed as schizophrenia spectrum and other psychotic disorders. The participants were instructed to set their own goals and evaluate them using the GAS. Scores of each participant's GAS were later calculated to determine the level of goal attainment. A single group pre-post test design and linear mixed effects models were used to examine application and effectiveness of the GAS. The results found that the average GAS scores increased along with observations and the rate of the increase were statistically significant. In addition, this study indicated the importance of self-determined goal setting, goal attainment, and supports of the process. Practical implication and limitation of this study were also discussed.
