title: [Social psychiatry and psychoanalysis - "immature, jostling and rivaling siblings"?].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  We want to determine the influence of psychoanalysis on social psychiatry today and 30 years ago.
  
  
  METHODS
  Systematic analyses of all articles appearing in Psychiatrische Praxis in 1974, 1975, 2004, and 2005.
  
  
  RESULTS
  While almost one in five articles referred to psychoanalysis or Freud 30 years ago, currently this hardly occurs at all.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The social-scientific claims of psychoanalysis often heard in the 1970 s play no role in current social psychiatry. Psychoanalysis is also losing significance as a method of social psychiatric patient care.
