This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of emotion regulation training in reducing aggressive behavior in individuals with schizoaffective disorder. The subject of the study was a 21-year-old male client with a history of neurological disorders and family genetic factors. Based on the results of a psychological assessment, the client was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder (295.70) with symptoms of hallucinations, delusions, mood disorders, and aggressive behavior such as hitting, shouting, and speaking harshly, especially to parents. The intervention provided was a 9-session emotion regulation training. The results of the intervention showed a decrease in the intensity of aggressive behavior based on observations before, during, and after the intervention. These findings indicate that emotion regulation training is effective in reducing aggressive behavior in schizoaffective patients.]]>
