DESCRIPTION:Individuals who have a diagnosis of schizophrenia can experie
 nce both positive and negative symptoms. \n\nPositive symptoms are those
  attributes that occur in addition to normal behaviours\, such as voice 
 hearing and delusions. Negative symptoms are those symptoms that are a d
 eficit of an attribute and include\, but are not limited to\, lack of co
 ncentration\, loss of motivation\, and emotional and social withdrawal. 
 \n\nLittle qualitative research has been conducted to date on negative s
 ymptoms\, yet these symptoms can be disabling and can affect those aroun
 d the individual as well as wider society. \n\nThe aim of this study was
  to understand how individuals subjectively experience the prominent neg
 ative symptoms of schizophrenia through qualitative semi structured inte
 rviews.  \n\nThe findings from this unique study are of particular impor
 tance to clinicians working with individuals who may experience negative
  symptoms of schizophrenia\, as well as to their family members and care
 rs. Additionally the findings can aid our understanding as researchers a
 nd clinicians of what it is like to experience these symptoms and theref
 ore help to improve an individual’s recovery.
