title: [A catamnestic follow-up of a compensation neurosis study].
abstract: The article reports on the results of a follow-up examination of 25 applicants for a social insurance pension who had been thoroughly examined 2 to 4 years earlier because of a suspicion of compensation neurosis (see Fortschritte Neurol . Psychiatr . 50 (1982) 207-214).--Two-thirds of the 24 still living persons were followed up by means of a questionnaire; in one-half of the patients, it was possible to study the court files. It was shown that comprehensive information within the framework of a psychiatric expertise which includes a personally investigated biographical anamnesis under psychological aspects of neurosis research and examination based on test psychology, usually results in rapid termination of the lawsuits involved, with mutual consent. This is a particularly interesting point, since in all cases the lawsuits instituted by the claimants had been going on for several years.
