The third working meeting of the project partners looked beyond the ongoing study. The core theme was the further evaluation of the Personality-Oriented Self-Regulation Training (PSRT) — specifically from the perspective of transferability.
Beyond the first study
The current study tests PSRT within a clearly defined framework. For its further development, however, the question arose of how well the training can be transferred to other contexts: to further substances beyond the initial diagnosis, and to other facilities and care settings. This is exactly where the transdiagnostic approach of PSRT comes in — an approach that starts not from a single substance but from the underlying processes of self-regulation.
Setting the course for the next phase
At the meeting, the partners discussed what a further evaluation examining this transferability systematically might look like. Alongside the scientific testing of effectiveness, this brought to the fore the question of the conditions under which the training could be introduced more broadly into care. The working meeting thus laid the conceptual foundations for the next phase of the project.
