Qualitative Study of Emotional Regulation in Schizophrenia
The main aim of this study is to investigate emotional regulation in individuals with schizophrenia using a qualitative methodology (semi-structured interview) and, therefore, from the person's point of view.

Given the qualitative nature of the methodology used in this study, the investigators have no specific hypothesis. The investigators have a general hypothesis suggesting that the patients' discourse will enable us to highlight the emotional regulation difficulties described in the literature.
