The specific case taken in this article was of Cyprus. There were two research queries in the section. The first was about the conceivable factors that can influence the family weight of the tutors of schizophrenic patients. Moreover, secondly, it was the connection between social welfare administrations and the family weight of these patients with stable diseases. The covariance test (ANCOVA) was related to stress, supervision, stress, and consolation as dependent elements.

The findings show the need to provide successful treatment to welfare recipients who are mentally ill or have substance abuse problems.

The test question is: What are the problems and opportunities to address the requirements in the recovery procedure based on the announced personal satisfaction? Also, two sub-questions were considered: Is there an association between self-detailed personal satisfaction and the conditions addressed for recovery? What are the ramifications of this relationship regarding the creation of individualized administrations? The findings show that needs are met from time to time and disclosure of treatment data is poor. This examination demonstrates that some critical components are missing in the restoration procedure that could encourage the achievement of standard results, particularly about the personal satisfaction of patients. Also, the research shows that it is so imperative to know people without the terms of anyone else in the recovery procedure. In this sense, the need to emphasize efficient work with the unfulfilled requirements of people who require mental administrations. 3 Annotated Bibliography Article 4 Marrone, J., Foley, S., & Selleck, V.
