Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The Adult-Attachement-Interview will be conducted at the beginning of the study for diagnostic purposes. The aim of the study is to analyze text- and film-material concerning the following questions: Which conversational and narratological means can be observed to co-construct agency in the therapeutic dyad (Therapist/Patient)? How does change develop concerning agency-constructions? Are there stereotypical patterns of agency-constructions observable? Is it possible to tie constructions of reality (ficionality-/factuality-/fictivity-signals) with agency constructions?

Secondary

The study is for hyptheses generating purposes in psychotherapy-process-research.
