[Difficulties in the explication process with psychosomatic clients: the significance of understanding and process
1Fakultät für Psychologie, Ruhr-Universität Bochum.
Abstract:
In the study it has been investigated in what way therapeutical interventions influence the clarification/explication processes of psychosomatic and non-psychosomatic clients. It was found that therapists exert a strong influence on the clients' explication processes, that the type of the content references made by the therapist strongly influences the effects of the interventions and that the processes of psychosomatic clients are less capable of being furthered than that of non-psychosomatic clients. Theoretical and practical implications of the results are discussed.
