  1. DIALOG PROM: Patient Reported Outcome Measures, mean across 8 domains (mental health, physical health, job situation, accommodation, leisure activities, relationships, friendships, personal safety); DIALOG PREM: Patient Reported Experience Measures, mean across 3 domains (satisfaction with: medication, practical help, meetings); n.s not significant; TAU Treatment as usual; * The mean difference is significant at the .05 level.
  2. *Each Scale is positively ranked where higher scores indicate higher satisfaction/efficacy/confidence/adherence
