title: [The Roemer Award of the German College of Psychosomatic Medicine (1976-1998): quantitative data and contents].
abstract: The Roemer-Award of the German College of Psychosomatic Medicine might be the most attractive research award in the German Psychosomatic field. This review starts with an appreciation of its namer, Hans Roemer. Then the award winners between 1976 and 1998 are summarized. Quantitative analyses of the material reveal interesting data about the number of applications during these years and about how the applications and the awarded work are distributed over the different issues of the research field. It is shown that studies dealing with psychosomatic aspects in internal medicine were submitted and awarded most frequently.
