title: [Follow-up of patients with organic cerebral psychosyndrome after disablement].
abstract: On the basis of a longitudinal study fifty-three patients were diagnosed, three times medically and psychologically, with reference to the neuralorganic psychosyndrome in a ten-year period. Of these patients thirty-five were disabled by neuropsychiatric and internistic illnesses. The study was concerned with the long-term process of the health and the performance of the patient. After early retirement, the subjectively experienced condition of the health of the patient improved, while the memory and fluid intelligence remained on a low level, without further worsening. After early retirement, a reorientation of subjective values took place within the patient. Thereby, the performance criteria of the patients became less improved, while the social criteria for life satisfaction and future orientation gained in significance.
