MARS-10 (Medication Adherence Report Scale-10) questionnaire is a self-reported questionnaire to measure patient’s adherence which has been implemented in some disease. However, there is still no study investigated the application of MARS-10 into schizophrenia patients in Indonesia.

This design of this study was a prospective, descriptive quantitative analysis approach with a cross-sectional design. Thirty schizophrenia patients from Saiful Anwar Hospital Malang, Lawang Mental Hospital, and UMM Hospital were used as research samples.
