Popis: | A 62-yr-old woman with a 16-yr history of astasia-abasia was treated by means of the differential treatment technique. Generalization of treatment effects from hospital to home was achieved through family therapy. This study is a systematic replication of earlier work and is the first report of this intervention with an elderly patient, treated by a first year psychiatry resident receiving his first behavior therapy supervision on a psychodynamically oriented inpatient unit. Follow-up 10 months after discharge revealed no symptom return or substitution. |
