  • Title: [Research on results and psychoanalytic therapy. Experiences in the planning and carrying out of a follow up project].
    Author: Bräutigam W, von Rad M, Engel K.
    Journal: Z Psychosom Med Psychoanal; 1980; 26(2):101-18. PubMed ID: 7386063.
    Abstract:
    The present project, now entering the initial stages after a 3-year preparation period, covers all patients admitted to the Psychosomatische Universitätsklinik Heidelberg a the beginning of 1978 or later. The project is a prospective one; therapeutic goals are formulated from a psychoanalytic perspective at the commencement of treatment, establishing criteria by which later treatment results can be evaluated as successful or unsuccessful. Furthermore, various criteria have been elaborated to observe changes in the patients during the waiting-period, in treatment and two years after treatment termination. Determining which patients and patients-groups have been successfully treated and which less so provides a basis for the study of the influence of individual factors in the therapeutic process: the various psychoanalytic techniques used, the patient variables and the therapist variables. The project is designed to affect treatment in progress as little as possible, while at the same time using empirical methods to elucidate treatment results and the factors significantly involved in producing such results. The planning aspect and the difficulties encountered in operationalising such a project centred around "Work in progress" are also dealt with.
