[Concepts in discussion groups in psychiatric outpatient care - an individual "Patchwork Design"? Results of a qualitative investigation].
OBJECTIVE
Research on concepts of discussion groups in the outpatient psychiatrist care is accounted for on the background of its practical relevance and the simultaneous lack of specialist literature.


METHODS
Using qualitative proceedings, the subjective concepts of the discussion leaders concerning origin and feasibility are investigated, compared and put in relation to the specialist literature.


RESULTS
Varied concepts and executed actions that were newly worked out at every one time, partly moulded rather on an individual than on subject-specific criteria and that are thus only restrictedly convertible become obvious.


CONCLUSIONS
In order to secure the quality of this work further research concerning the development of scientifically founded concepts and educational offers as well as the transfer of relevant scientific cognition from the clinical sector are suggested.
