Abstract

Schizophrenia is a severe mental disorder often accompanied by negative symptoms such as social isolation. Untreated social isolation can impact social functioning and quality of life, increase the risk of relapse, and even lead to suicide. This study aimed to determine the effect of socialization group activity therapy (TAKS) in the form of a story ball relay on reducing social isolation in schizophrenia patients at the Griya Cinta Kasih Foundation in Jombang. The study used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pre-test/post-test approach. The population consisted of 30 respondents using a total sampling technique. Data were collected using the UCLA Loneliness Scale social isolation questionnaire to measure levels of social isolation before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test in SPSS 25 (p < 0.05). The results showed that before the intervention, the majority of respondents 12 patients (40%) experienced severe isolation. After therapy, the majority of respondents 13 patients (43.3%) experienced a decrease in social isolation. The statistical test results showed a p-value of -4.764 (p<0.05), indicating an effect in reducing social isolation. It was concluded that the TAKS story ball relay was effective in reducing social isolation in schizophrenia patients and could therefore be used as an alternative non-pharmacological therapy.
