    Author: Kratochvíl S, Lisková M, Machů V.
    Journal: Psychiatr Neurol Med Psychol (Leipz); 1983 Jan; 35(1):10-5. PubMed ID: 6856705.
    Abstract:
    Of 1,343 neurotic patients who completed six-week courses of treatment in a therapeutic community, 60% were considered by the therapists to have improved greatly in terms of symptoms, 36% in terms of insight and 35% in terms of attitude and behaviour. Follow-up examination using questionnaires one year after treatment showed considerable improvement in symptoms in 45%, in insight in 62% and in attitude and behaviour in 49% of the cases; 16% of the cases failed to return the questionnaire. If slight improvements are included, the proportion of patients showing improvement varies between 82 and 92% upon completion of treatment and between 70 and 80% one year later.
