We will present the results of an on-going research, carried out with the main purpose of investigate and analyse the relationships between depressive and positive symptoms with stressful life-events, interpersonal processes and quality of life in schizophrenic patients.

Sample: 30 adults, males and females, suffering from schizophrenia, inpatients of a Psychiatric Unit in a general hospital.

A multimodal assessment matrix was used to evaluate depression, suicidal ideation and intention, hopelessness, pessimism, interpersonal relations, quality of life, stressful life events and positive symptoms.

We expect to find a positive correlation between hopelessness, pessimism, suicidal ideation, and the indicators of depression and also a mediator effect, of depressive, cognitive and positive symptoms, on the relationship between stressful life events and quality of life.
