      Insbesondere bei Patienten mit somatoformen Störungen, denen bezüglich der psychogenen Erkrankungsanteile häufig die Störungseinsicht fehlt, gewinnt der Aspekt der Förderung der Behandlungsmotivation eminente Bedeutung (Baumeister u. Härter 2006).
      Particularly in patients with somatoform dysfunctions, who in respect to the psychogenic portions of their illness often lack insight into their dysfunctionality, the aspect of promoting motivation to undergo treatment gains prominence (Baumeister and Härter 2006).
