The authors give a brief review over papers presented on the "International Symposion on Autogenic Training" in Berlin, March 1988. A study based on empirical data from 48 managers was presented, showing how Autogenic Training (AT) could reduce cardiovascular riskfactors, e.g. cardiac-functions and levels of bloodcholesterol and -triglycerids (Carruthers). Of high actual importance was a report about grouptherapy with AIDS-patients, in which AT played a big role. The quality of life of the patients was improved considerably (Kermani). A multidimensional therapeutic approach combining psychopharmaca, AT and psychoanalytic grouptherapy was presented (Barolin). In the field of psychophysiology there was a report about a thermometric study carried out with a group of psychovegetative impaired patients demonstrating the "vasodilatatory potence" of the AT (Stetter). Müller-Hegemann reported about misunderstandings in teaching AT and made some remarks in the changing of tension and relaxation in human life being influenced by practicing AT and physical training.
作者简要回顾了1988年3月在柏林举行的“国际自生训练研讨会”上发表的论文。展示了一项基于48名管理人员的实证数据的研究，表明自生训练（AT）如何降低心血管风险因素，如心脏功能以及血液中胆固醇和甘油三酯水平（卡拉瑟斯）。一份关于艾滋病患者团体治疗的报告具有很高的现实重要性，其中自生训练发挥了重要作用。患者的生活质量得到了显著改善（克尔马尼）。提出了一种结合心理药物、自生训练和精神分析团体治疗的多维度治疗方法（巴罗林）。在心理生理学领域，有一份关于对一组心理植物神经功能受损患者进行的温度测量研究的报告，证明了自生训练的“血管舒张能力”（施泰特）。米勒 - 黑格曼报告了自生训练教学中的误解，并就自生训练和体育锻炼对人类生活中紧张和放松变化的影响发表了一些看法。
