title: [Quality criteria in psychiatric expert practice].
abstract: Aspects of quality control are of significant importance in the field of psychiatric expertise. Better transparency and reliability should be aimed at. Formal quality criteria refer to organization, duration and extent of psychiatric exploration. Diagnosis should be made according to DSM-III-R or ICD-10 criteria. Estimation of individual degree of disability is necessary. Patients with neurotic or personality disorder require particular experience and qualification. Psychodynamic aspects of expert-patient-interaction should receive special attention. Limits of psychiatric expertise must be outlined.
