Intrinsic motivation predicts cognitive and functional gains during coordinated specialty care for first-episode schizophrenia.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Coordinated Specialty Care (CSC) and embedded group therapeutic interventions have been effective in improving outcomes for individuals experiencing recent first-episode schizophrenia, including cognitive performance and functioning. Treatment response varies substantially, with some patients experiencing limited or no improvement. Motivation has emerged as a key determinant of treatment engagement and efficacy. However, the impact of intrinsic and extrinsic aspects of motivation has not been directly examined with treatment outcomes in first-episode schizophrenia. This study investigated whether baseline levels of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation predicted cognitive and functional gains over 6 and 12 months in CSC. Forty participants with first-episode schizophrenia completed a 12-month CSC treatment period. Baseline measures of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation were obtained for group therapeutic interventions and work/school, as well as measures of cognition and functioning (role and social) at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months. Results revealed that higher baseline scores of intrinsic motivation for group therapeutic interventions were significantly predictive of greater cognitive gains at 12 months, and a similar tendency was observed at 6 months. Additionally, baseline scores of intrinsic motivation for work/school predicted role gains at 6 months, with a similar tendency observed at 12 months. Extrinsic motivation did not consistently impact treatment outcomes, except for work/school-related extrinsic motivation, which was linked to greater social functioning gains at 12 months. These findings provide insight into the factors influencing treatment outcomes for individuals with first-episode schizophrenia and highlight the importance of intrinsic motivation as a modifiable personal variable that can enhance response to CSC.
