- Abstract
Reported employment rates for patients with psychosis are low, but vary partly depending on illness phase. Illness-related factors such as neurocognition and negative symptoms are associated with occupational functioning, while external factors may also act as barriers for employment. The current study investigated the relationship between neurocognition, symptoms and employment using a threefold division of employment status: employed, receiving temporary benefits and receiving disability benefits. The latter group was divided into two based on level of social functioning.
