[Implementing Recovery-Orientation in Psychoeducation - An Attempt].
OBJECTIVE
This article explores the diverging implementation of the main principles of recovery in two group settings similar to psychoeducation.


METHODS
Both groups were qualitatively examined, using participant observation, and compared to each other afterwards.


RESULTS
Both groups used various models of disease, whereby the participants' subjective experiences were favoured. Kinds of interaction and communication among participants were dependent on spatial characteristics of both group settings. Various types of knowledge were employed, structuring the relations among participants.


CONCLUSIONS
More standardized modes of transferring knowledge, often utilized in psychoducational settings, are less compatible with such an approach.
