Self-esteem is widely used as an outcome measure in studies of psychiatric rehabilitation. "Work" is an important part of life and a therapeutic modality, generating a sense of purpose and self-esteem. In this study, 15 patients with chronic institutionalized patients with schizophrenia were included, and their work performance and self-esteem were assessed. This was a hospital based cross sectional study. The analysis included descriptive statistics and Pearson's correlation. Results show that there is no significant relationship between self-esteem and work performance in patients with chronic schizophrenia.Keywords

Suicidal ideation and attempt are common in major depressive disorder and other psychiatric diagnosis. It is indubitable that psychiatric disorders are linked to suicide, but in what manner remains to be explained. A patient with major depression has increase risk for suicide compared with an individual without depression. Since most patients with depression do not show suicidal behavior, it has been argued that other factors than those eliciting depressive mood must operate when a person becomes suicidal. In this study, we included 30 suicide attempters with depression and 30 suicidal ideators with depression but without prior history of suicidal attempt and they were assessed using Temperament and Character Inventory. This was a hospital based cross sectional study. The analysis included descriptive statistics and Mann Whitney U test. Results show that higher Novelty Seeking, Reward Dependence and Self-Transcendence in Suicide Attempters than the Suicide Ideators. However, Suicidal Ideators were found to have higher Harm Avoidance and Self-Directedness.Keywords
