Long-term outcomes of short-term and long-term psychosomatic inpatient treatment and their predictors
2007
Abstract Objectives The Clinic for Psychosomatic Medicine and Psychotherapy at the University Giessen, Germany, offers short-term (STT) and long-term inpatient therapy (LTT). Methods In a prospective, 3-year follow-up study, we examined therapeutic indication, short- and long-term results, outcome predictors, and the utilization of aftercare for both settings.

Furthermore, the SE prototype showed significant correlations with the cognitive-behavioral prototype and the prototype of interpersonal …
