[Stability of therapeutic outcome after child- and adolescent psychoanalytical therapy--a five-year catamnesis].
In the Heidelberg study about psychoanalytic therapy with children and adolescents 133 cases have been studied in a naturalistic design. Up to now results were published on the basis of assessments of experts only. This follow-up study has investigated the stability of therapy outcomes from the perspectives of different raters. For that outcome has been rated five years after the end of treatment by experts, parents and children themselves. Good outcomes have been stabile and have shown even after five years. Single variables showed further improvement in the time of follow-up, for example the social communicative impairment with parents. Thus the high rate of successful longterm psychoanalytic therapies with children and adolescents could be confirmed from different rater perspectives.
