title: [Change in the self-concept of drug-dependent patients in inpatient care].
abstract: As a rule, drug addicted people show a distinctly diminished estimate of the value of their selves. It is investigated whether this estimate changes during a inpatient stay on a drug rehabilitation ward and whether the selected methods of investigation form an adequate means of evaluating the therapeutic program. It can be shown that under certain conditions (duration of stay, compliance, problem-solving ability) this is indeed the case. However, it remains an open question, whether the observed amelioration has to be viewed as a non-specific effect of the change of milieu or whether it depends on the therapeutic program offered on the ward.
