Abstract
The current study investigates the pervasive issue of loneliness in persons with schizophrenia (PwS) using ecological momentary assessment (EMA) alongside traditional measures (UCLA-LS). Examining PwS and non-psychiatric comparisons subjects (NC), our findings show small effect-sizes between EMA loneliness and UCLA-LS. PwS exhibit more homogeneity but higher day-to—day variability.
