The use of music in the field of cognitive remediation is growing and much research has focused on the relevance and effectiveness of its use in care. Studies have therefore made it possible to show the relevance of the use of musical material in the remediation of patients with various pathologies with cognitive disorders (head trauma, stroke, Alzheimer's disease). Although cognitive remediation has been widely studied in patients with schizophrenia, few studies suggest the effects of remediation in patients with a first psychotic episode. No study currently demonstrates the relevance of this material in the remediation of young people presenting a first psychotic episode.
The Mobile Intensive Care Team of the Adult Psychiatry Service of the CHU de Caen (EMSI) takes care of patients who have presented with a first psychotic episode. Young people entering an emerging psychosis frequently exhibit cognitive impairment. These attacks are variable and can concern memory, attentional and executive functioning. The most frequent disorders concern memory functioning and it is important to deal with them early in order to improve the functional prognosis of the young person.
We therefore propose the establishment of cognitive remediation groups through the MAO with patients treated by EMSI. These groups would aim to heal memory, attention and executive functions through exercises and musical practice through the Ableton © software. We therefore propose a study that would assess the effects of these workshops on the cognitive functioning of patients with memory difficulties. Attentional and executive functioning as well as self-esteem and negative symptoms will also be assessed.
This remedy will be offered in groups of 4. In this feasibility study, 30 patients will be included depending on the inclusion and monitoring capacities of the center. Ten weekly sessions of one hour per group over a period of 3 months will be applied. To assess the beneficial effects of this group remediation, assessments will be carried out at the start of the study and at the end of the 10 sessions.
The aim of this study is to assess the effects of an CAM remediation group on cognitive functioning, mood and self-esteem in patients who presented with a first psychotic episode.

| A statistical significant change in episodic memory functionning from Baseline 1 to Baseline 2 (Week 14). | An assessment of the episodic verbal memory will be performed at Baseline 1 (Week 0) and at Baseline 2 (Week 14) with the WMS-IV (Weschler Memory Scale 4th edition). This scale provides an episodic memory measure varying from 60 to 140 (mean = 100 ; standard deviation = 15). This measure is called Delayed Memory Index. | Baseline 1 (Week 0) and Baseline 2 (Week 14) |
