title: Schizophrenia, psychiatric rehabilitation, and healthy development: a theoretical framework.
abstract: This paper makes an initial attempt to present a theoretical model for psychiatric rehabilitation based upon the principles of healthy development. The model emphasizes mastery, attachment, and meaning, three aspects of healthy development that have strong empirical support. A discussion of the impairments of schizophrenia related to these three areas is presented, and a rehabilitation model, The Psychiatric Rehabilitation Integrated Service Model, PRISM, is outlined as an example of a rehabilitation program based upon the principles of normal, healthy development.
