The aim of our study was to compare the performance of three different
instruments measuring clinical and cognitive dimensions of insight. Data on 182
outpatients with schizophrenia and one-year follow-up assessments was drawn from
the FACE-SZ cohort. Awareness of clinical state (« clinical insight ») was
measured using both a clinician-rated measure (the Scale to assess Unawareness
of Mental Disorder (SUMD)), and a self-report measure (the Birchwood Insight
Scale (BIS). Cognitive insight was measured using a self-report measure (the
Beck Cognitive Insight Scale (BCIS)). For each scale, change in insight was
examined at the follow-up. Correlations between SUMD and BIS subscales measuring
same dimensions were significant. BIS-BCIS correlations were weak for all
combinations except between BIS illness dimension and BCIS composite score. At
the follow-up, BIS and SUMD awareness of treatment need improved whereas illness
and symptom awareness increased only on the SUMD. Conversely, cognitive insight
composite scores decreased. Despite relatively good overall agreement between
the two clinical insight instruments, considerable variability for similar
insight dimensions measured by different instruments was found. Agreement
between cognitive and clinical insight is moderate. Our study strengthens the
argument that insight is harder to operationalize than other symptoms and may
explain why it is so seldom explicitly targeted in schizophrenia treatment.
