title: Rejoinder: Therapists, patients, and alliance development.
abstract: Responding to critical points raised by J. Holmes (2009) and G. Silberschatz (2009), the article "Therapists' Attachment, Patients' Interpersonal Problems, and Alliance Development Over Time in Inpatient Psychotherapy," by U. Dinger, M. Strack, T. Sachsse, and H. Schauenburg (2009), is discussed. With regard to their particular study, the authors reflect upon the relevance of findings from the German-specific inpatient psychotherapy setting for treatment in other settings, as well as on the specific role of interpersonal problems in this sample. In addition, the authors discuss the clinical relevance of their findings, as well the clinical usefulness of the present state of research on alliance development.
