  • Title: [Psychopathologic findings and results of treatment of pension applicants].
    Author: Sandweg R, Sänger-Alt C, Rudolf G.
    Journal: Nervenarzt; 1992 Sep; 63(9):539-44. PubMed ID: 1407224.
    Abstract:
    As part of a broader follow-up study (n = 1088) in a psychosomatic hospital, 35 patients who had applied for early retirement on health grounds were examined by means of a psychosomatic personality inventory (PSKB-Rudolf). In addition to confirming previous findings in relation to the character-profile and defence-mechanisms of such patients, the present study describes a cluster of characteristics that would lead to unfavourable therapeutic results. The fact that these persons had applied for early retirement had in itself no appreciable therapeutic consequences.
