This correlational study examined the relationship of insight with positive and negative symptoms and level of functioning among persons with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. Poor insight as a symptom of schizophrenia is the conceptual framework. Thirty-seven people receiving assertive community treatment, inpatient hospitalization, or outpatient treatment were assessed using 2 self-rating insight scales, the Scale for Assessment of Positive Symptoms (SAPS), the Scale for Assessment of Negative Symptoms (SANS), and the Global Assessment of Functioning (GAF). A significant negative correlation was found between insight and positive formal thought disorder. No significant relationships were found between insight and negative symptoms or level of functioning. Reactions to the self-rating insight tools suggest necessary revisions of the insight tool.
