Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Examination of the association between the (auto)aggressive tendencies with the severity of mental symptoms. Examination of the relationship between the (self-directed) aggressive tendencies and the therapy outcome. For this purpose, the aggressive tendencies will be examined using the "Test inventory of self-directed and other-directed aggressive behaviour", the general symptom burden will be examined using the HEALTH-49 and the disorder-specific symptoms will be examined using disorder-specific questionnaires such as the Beck Depression Inventory Revision. The questionnaires will be given at the beginning, and the end of the clinic stay. Examination of differences in the manifestation of aggressive behavior tendencies between different mental disorders. Examination if the sense of coherence influences the treatment success and if the sence of coherence changes in the course of the therapy. Therefore both the sense of coherence scale from Antonovsky (1993) and the sense of coherence scale from Bachem and Maerker will be used.	—
