Abstract

The current study examines targets of treatment and intervention strategies of youths with and without schizophrenia–spectrum diagnoses utilizing services within a state public mental health system of care. Service records of youths with schizophrenia–spectrum diagnoses were compared to all other youths receiving services. Specific treatment targets and techniques were more frequently reported in the spectrum group relative to the non-spectrum group. This research on targets of treatment and specific treatment strategies offers preliminary insight into common goals of treatment and clinical practices employed in this under studied population.
