The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of a combined intervention of water aerobics and Metacognitive Training (MCT), compared to each intervention separately, in people with psychosis. One purpose is to analyze the improvement of clinical, cognitive, metacognitive and psychosocial variables, motor coordination and physical health condition. Another purpose is to study the changes in SP1 and SP4 biomarker transcription levels as a function of the intervention received. The hypothesis is that the combined intervention will enhance the benefits of each intervention separately, specifically in symptoms, cognition, metacognition and psychosocial variables.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Water aerobics | Active Comparator | Aerobic exercises performed in a swimming pool. |
|
| Metacognitive Training (MCT) | Active Comparator | Treatment program for psychosis based on Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), cognitive remediation (CRT) and psychoeducation. |
|
| Combined intervention (water aerobics + MCT) | Experimental | Combination of water aerobics and MCT sessions. |
|
| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Water aerobics | Behavioral | 1-hour session of water aerobics per week, for 3 months. A specialized trainer will carry out water aerobics sessions and will focus on motor coordination, strength and cardiovascular workout. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change from Baseline BCIS Beck Cognitive Insight Scale at 3 months (Beck et al., 2004; Gutierrez-Zotes et al., 2012) | Cognitive insight self-registered measure (15 items): ability to analyze one's own beliefs and judgments. Self-reflectivness subscale: higher scores indicate a greater ability to reflect on one's own thoughts. Selfcertainty subscale: higher scores indicate a greater tendency to overestimate one's own beliefs without considering alternative explanations. Composite index: higher scores indicate a greater cognitive insight. | Baseline and 3-month follow-up |
| Change from Baseline Beads Task at 3 months (Brett-Jones et al., 1987) | Measure of jumping to conclusions bias. It includes two tasks in which two jars with colored beads are presented. The first task has a 85:15 proportion and the second task has a 60:40 proportion. In the third task, the jars contain positive and negative comments, with a proportion of 60:40 in each jar. The person has to infer from which jar the beads or comments are drawn. Jumping to conclusions bias is present when the participant decides after seeing up to two beads or comments. | Baseline and 3-month follow-up |
| Change from Baseline CBQ Cognitive Bias Questionnaire at 3 months (Peters et al, 2013; Gutiérrez-Zotes, 2021) | Measure of five cognitive biases (30 items): jumping to conclusions, intentionalising, catastrophising, emotional reasoning, and dichotomous thinking. | Baseline and 3-month follow-up |
| Change from Baseline Stress Test at 3 months | Assessment of clinical and sports records, cardiorespiratory and locomotor system examination, electrocardiogram and ergometry. | Baseline and 3-month follow-up |
| Change from Baseline Molecular measures at 3 months | Protein levels of SP1 and SP4 biomarkers transcription factor levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). mRNA expression levels of SP1 and SP4 biomarkers transcription factors in PBMCs. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change from Baseline PANSS Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale at 3 months (Kay et al., 1987; Peralta y Cuesta, 1995) | Semi-structured interview to assess positive, negative and general symptoms of psychosis. Higher scores indicate greater severity of symptoms. | Baseline and 3-month follow-up |
| Change from Baseline BDI-II Beck Depression Inventory-II at 3 months (Beck et al., 1996) |

The outcome assessor will be blind to the intervention recieved by the participants
| Metacognitive Training (MCT) | Behavioral | 1-hour session of MCT per week, for 3 months. A trained psychologist will carry out the MCT sessions. MCT addresses the most common cognitive biases in psychosis. Each session will focus on one topic, such as attributional style, jumping to conclusions, theory of mind, emotion recognition, memory or empathy. |
|
| Combined intervention | Behavioral | Patients in this arm will participate in both in water aerobics and MCT sessions, once a week for each intervention. |
