Short-term dynamic psychotherapy. III. A 5-year follow-up of 36 neurotic patients. 1985

R Husby

36 patients of 39 (92%) were followed up 2 years after the end of short-term dynamic psychotherapy. 33 of these 36 patients (92%) were again followed up 5 years after the end of treatment. Changes had occurred between the two follow-up times that to some extent might be due to spontaneous remission and further therapy, but this could not explain all changes. The same patient characteristics that were related to outcome at the 2-year follow-up were related to outcome at the 5-year follow-up. This replication of findings strengthens the results.
