Abstract

This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Clinical Psychology Doctorate at the University of Birmingham. This volume contains a literature review, research paper, and public domain paper. The literature review summarises research that explored the impact of different psychological therapies on negative symptoms in schizophrenia and related disorders. The research paper describes an investigation into the negative symptoms experienced by people with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder who use cannabis, compared to those who do not. It is intended that both pieces of work will be submitted to ‘Schizophrenia Research’ for publication. The public domain paper summarises both the literature review and research paper.
