title: [Psychological studies of sterile couples within the scope of an in vitro fertilization program].
abstract: The results of a psychological individual and process diagnostic programme at sterility patients undergoing an in-vitro-fertilization and embryo transfer are demonstrated. The women showed an optimistic emotional disposition and negation of conflict or trouble experience during their stay in the hospital. From the day of laparoscopy till embryo transfer a short labilization sets in, i.e. a slight deterioration of the emotional disposition as an expression of a phase of stress compensation. Questions of motivation, partner constellation and special personality characteristics are discussed.
