[Rehabilitants' Expectations and Informational Needs Concerning Inpatient Psychosomatic Rehabilitation - Results of a Qualitative Analysis].

Aim Of The Study: In order to develop an online portal for the preparation for inpatient psychosomatic rehabilitation, information requirements as well as the online use behavior of rehabilitants were determined first.

Methods: Four focus groups with rehabilitants (N=31) as well as two with the treatment team (N=18) were performed and evaluated qualitatively.

Results: A total of 419 statements by rehabilitants and 333 statements by the treatment team were coded and assigned to categories.

The impact of attachment distress on affect-centered mentalization: An experimental study in psychosomatic patients and healthy adults.

Introduction: We investigated the impact of attachment distress on affect-centered mentalization in a clinical and a non-clinical sample, comparing mentalization in a baseline condition to mentalization under a condition of attachment distress.

Methods: The sample consisted of 127 adults who underwent inpatient psychosomatic treatment, and 34 mentally healthy adults. Affect-centered mentalization was assessed by analyzing participants' narratives on interpersonal situations in a baseline condition with the Levels of Emotional Awareness Scale (LEAS), and an experimental condition inducing attachment distress with the Adult Attachment Projective Picture System (AAP).

Evaluation of a video-based Internet intervention as preparation for inpatient psychosomatic rehabilitation: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.

Background: Patients' treatment expectations are a key factor in psychotherapy. Several studies have linked higher expectations to better treatment success. Therefore, we want to evaluate the impact of a targeted video-based intervention on patients' expectations and the treatment success of inpatient rehabilitation.

Evaluation of an internet-based aftercare program to improve vocational reintegration after inpatient medical rehabilitation: study protocol for a cluster-randomized controlled trial.

Background: Mental disorders are the main reasons for rising proportions of premature pension in most high-income countries. Although inpatient medical rehabilitation has increasingly targeted work-related stress, there is still a lack of studies on the transfer of work-specific interventions into work contexts. Therefore, we plan to evaluate an online aftercare program aiming to improve vocational reintegration after medical rehabilitation.
