[Further results of a 6-week period of treatment of neuroses in a therapeutic community].
Comparison of results referring to 1971-74 in 630 patients with those from 1976-82 in 1,211 patients confirmed that according to the evaluation of therapists the immediate substantial symptomatic improvement still varies near 60%. In the evaluation of insight and changes in attitudes and behaviour a for obscure reason decline was recorder. The evaluation of the symptomatic effect by patients one year after terminated treatment increased from 42 to 49%. Comparison of the immediate evaluation by therapists with the immediate evaluation by patients revealed that therapists had a slight tendency to overestimate symptomatic improvement while patients constantly and considerably overestimate the therapeutic results in the sphere of insight and changes of attitudes and behaviour. Comparison of the immediate effect with a one-year follow-up, using rating scales filled in by the patients, confirmed a satisfactory stability of the effect. Approximately half the patients improved substantially one year after treatment.
