[Narcissism dimension within an analytically oriented group psychotherapy of neurotic patients].

In relation to self-psychology narcissism-construct is important in analytic-oriented psychotherapy theoretical and practical and is more superior to emotional-relationship based conception by practical and living operalization opposite Roger's conception. We found based on variables-oriented multidimensional psychodiagnostical tests for neurotics in group-psychotherapy that questionnaires are suitable to diagnose narcissism in psychodynamical psychotherapy. Throughout on the one hand single scales of narcissism-states correlate with social desirability on the other hand are related to hypochondria, to psychastenic, depressive and schizoid tendencies. Through those patients having difficults to work reflexive and are attaining higher scores in narcissism-questionnaire opposite patients are optimal working, higher narcissism-scores are not condition for therapy success or unsuccess. In clusters of unsuccessful patients are reacting with defensive behaviour in group-psychotherapy in relation to higher narcissism-scores. Successful patients are more emotional-stable and additional more social-oriented and optimistic. These findings in study are therapy-valide with research-results in Psychoanalyse.

In evaluation of their own considerations with respect to the problem cases in psychotherapy and on the basis of a critical discussion of the literature, the authors analyse causes and forms of the phenomena of so-called negative effects in psychotherapy. They answer the question of the existence of negative effects in the affirmative and draw the conclusion that negative therapy results are due to problems of indication, the degree of the social involvement, the measurement of the changes and the research methods as well as to problems of the personality of the therapists and patients. The following negative effects are dealt with in detail: Aggravation of symptoms, occurrence of new symptoms and process-conditioned false interventions.

[Results of self image studies in children and adolescents (11/12-years-old to 16/17-years-old)].

The author in his present paper reports the results of studies made in an effort to reconstructively validate a method of self-imaging during childhood and adolescence. From the investigative results obtained it is apparent that during adolescence large self-image/ideal-image differences and low self-image values correlate with neuroticism, a situation which is similar to that which is usually observed in adults. Timid and introverted juveniles differ significantly from less timid and extroverted juveniles in both the self-image level and the self-image/ideal-image difference. Aside from the fact that the self-image level has been found to be relatively independent of intelligence, there are correlations between the maternal and child's self-image. It is of interest to note that the self-image level of children whose parents got a divorce is lower than that of children coming from intact families.
