    Notes: Summary In the present study, two established non-medicinal treatment methods are compared with regard to their effect on various psychological pain parameters in patients with fibromyalgia. Twelve patients underwent hydrogalvanic baths, 13 patients the Jacobson relaxation training. Statistical evaluation showed only one significant difference in the different dimensions of pain measured at the beginning and end of the therapy. In comparison with patients receiving Jacobson-therapy, there is a significantly higher decrease in pain intensity in the period from breakfast till lunch in patients receiving bath-therapy. Apart from this, no differences between the two treatment groups could be found, either in the quality of pain, the psychological symptoms accompanying it, in sleep quality or in pain behaviour.

    Notes: Abstract The present study is based on the hypothesis that patients with recurrent attacks of aphonia differ from those with non-recurring attacks of aphonia in their anxiety levels, social assertiveness and stress-coping strategies. A comparison was made between 21 women with recurring aphonia and 19 women with non-recurring aphonia with respect to these three factors. Seventeen healthy women served as volunteers. Compared to patients with non-recurring aphonias, patients with recurring aphonias exhibited a significantly higher level of anxiety and significantly more respect for social norms and codes of propriety. Their coping was also characterized by a higher escape tendency. Patients with recurring aphonias also reported a significantly higher number of problems in their private lives within the preceding 5-year period. In therapy patients should be encouraged to reflect upon a possible rigidity toward social norms and better understand fears regarding conflicts in personal relationships.
