GAS, Goal Attainment Scale; SOFAS, Social and Occupational Functioning Assessment Scale; CAINS, Clinical Assessment Interview for Negative Symptoms; CANTAB, Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery; RSE, Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale.

1GAS T-score calculated using formula 50 +10wixi[(1ρ)wi2+ ρ((wi)2]1/2with wi = the weight assigned to the ith goal; a product of participants perceived goal importance (rated 1–3) and difficulty (1–3) xi = the numerical rating achieved for the ith goal (between –2 and + 2) and ρ = 0.3 as recommended by the GAS guide. The score was calculated optimally for 3 goals but also for 1 or 2.

2The global cognition composite score includes CANTAB tests (Attention switching, Rapid visual information processing continuous performance, Simple and 5 choice reaction time, “One touch Stockings of Cambridge” Test of Planning, Spatial Working Memory) and the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT), Wisconsin Card Sorting Task (WCST) and Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) Digit span. Some components were reverse scored and/or transformed to be approximately normally distributed. Z-scores were calculated, and these were then trimmed, to 3 or −3 before summing to give a composite score.
