Negative symptoms are an important factor in preventing patients from returning to the community, we aim to assess the effect of music therapy on negative symptoms through this study. Participants of integrated music therapy will receive instrument playing, singing, lyrics modification/music organized play, listening to music and discussing each treatment process. Other participants will receive passive music listening or regular occupational therapy during the experimental period. Psychiatric symptoms, quality of life, social and interactive skills, and the differences in the physiological signals produced by skin, muscles, and heart will be measured before, after, and two months after the music therapy.
