[Experiences with the combination of communication training and dynamic group psychotherapy].

Three psychotherapy groups consisting of altogether 37 patients took part in communication training after L. Schäbisch and M. Sieme in preparation for group-centred dynamic psychotherapy. The results of pretherapy and post-therapy surveys with the MMPI were tested for quantitative changes using Posthoff and H. F. Böttcher's gnoseologically based test. The findings suggest that this combination of methods has a high standard of efficiency, which is finally discussed.
