Abstract
Problem
Inpatient psychotherapy can offer positive treatment outcomes for people with complex personality pathology who do not benefit from outpatient treatment. Little is known about how the development of schema modes during treatment relates to long-term development of symptoms, well-being and schema modes.
Method
This study employed a naturalistic, exploratory, within-subject design with long-term follow-up (LFU) measurement 2–8 years after discharge. Course and correlation of symptoms, well-being and schema modes were examined through multilevel analyses.
Results
Best scores on symptoms, well-being and schema modes were at LFU. The higher the baseline level and the greater the results achieved on schema modes during treatment, the more positive the course of symptoms and well-being becomes during treatment and in the long term.
Conclusion
This study shows that results achieved on symptoms, well-being and schema modes during inpatient psychotherapy treatment persist and even continue to improve two to eight years after treatment.
期刊介绍:
Counselling and Psychotherapy Research is an innovative international peer-reviewed journal dedicated to linking research with practice. Pluralist in orientation, the journal recognises the value of qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods strategies of inquiry and aims to promote high-quality, ethical research that informs and develops counselling and psychotherapy practice. CPR is a journal of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy, promoting reflexive research strongly linked to practice. The journal has its own website: www.cprjournal.com. The aim of this site is to further develop links between counselling and psychotherapy research and practice by offering accessible information about both the specific contents of each issue of CPR, as well as wider developments in counselling and psychotherapy research. The aims are to ensure that research remains relevant to practice, and for practice to continue to inform research development.
