Abstract

Social functions are related to one's ability to carry out their daily activities, whether in friends, work, or study. People with schizophrenia tend to have less interest in interacting with their social environment. The lack of interpersonal interest is determined by the avolition and response of others around them. An environment that tends to give a negative stigma makes schizophrenia increasingly reluctant and difficult to interact with other people. The study was conducted by a case study method in an early adult male who had been diagnosed with schizophrenia. Measurements are made by doing anamnesis, hetero-anamnesis, observation, and providing test tools such as graphics, TAT, and social functioning scale (SFS). The results of the study show that the social functions of respondents are quite sufficient. Respondents are able to interact with people who are friendly or accepting themselves, but still have difficulties when dealing with and establishing closeness with new people. The presence of suspicious thoughts and the tendency to be passive makes it difficult to interact and relate in new environments.
