Einleitung (aus dem deutschen Manual, 4. Auflage 2010)
Brauchen wir kognitives Training für Patienten mit Schizophrenie?
Die Schizophrenie ist ein komplexes psychiatrisches Störungsbild, dessen Kernsymptome Wahn, Halluzinationen und Ich-Störungen umfassen. Im vergangenen Jahrzehnt hat ein Umdenken in der Behandlung von Patienten mit Schizophrenie stattgefunden. Die pharmakologische Therapie mit Neuroleptika stellt weiterhin die Primärbehandlung dar. Zunehmend wird jedoch ein tief verwurzelter Vorbehalt gegenüber der psychotherapeutischen Behandlung schizophrener Patienten kritisch hinterfragt. Insbesondere angesichts des hohen Anteils von Patienten, die nicht oder kaum auf Neuroleptika ansprechen oder die diese aufgrund von Nebenwirkungen oder mangelnder Krankheitseinsicht absetzen (Byerly, Nakonezny, & Lescouflair, 2007; Elkis, 2007; Voruganti, Baker, & Awad, 2008), ist die Erforschung komplementärer psychotherapeutischer und kognitiver Behandlungsstrategien in den letzten Jahren stark vorangetrieben worden. Vor allem verhaltenstherapeutische Maßnahmen haben sich als sinnvolle Ergänzung der Pharmakotherapie erwiesen (Wykes, Steel, Everitt, & Tarrier, 2008). Das vorliegende metakognitive Training(*) basiert auf den theoretischen Grundlagen der Verhaltenstherapie der Schizophrenie, wählt aber einen anderen Behandlungsansatz.
Im Rahmen von acht Trainingseinheiten (Modulen) werden den teilnehmenden Patienten kognitive Fehler und einseitige Problemlösestile spielerisch vor Augen geführt, die einzeln oder in der Gesamtheit die Entwicklung von falschen Überzeugungen bis hin zum Wahn begünstigen (Freeman, 2007; Moritz & Woodward, 2007). Die Patienten werden angeleitet, ihr bisheriges Problemlöseverhalten kritisch zu reflektieren, zu verändern und die Inhalte des Trainings im Alltag umzusetzen. Da eine Psychose selten plötzlich erfolgt, sondern meist eine schleichende Veränderung in der Bewertung eigener Empfindungen sowie der sozialen Umwelt vorausgeht (z.B. Klosterkötter, 1992), knüpfen wir die Hoffnung, dass eine Stärkung der metakognitiven Kompetenz prophylaktisch wirkt. Merkblätter mit Hausaufgaben, die am Ende der Sitzungen ausgegeben werden, sollen diesen Prozess unterstützen.
Am Anfang jeder Einheit stehen psychoedukative Elemente und "Normalisierung": Mit Hilfe vieler Beispiele und Übungen wird in das jeweilige Themengebiet (z.B. voreiliges Schlussfolgern) eingeführt und die allgemeine Fehlbarkeit menschlicher Kognition thematisiert und illustriert. Im zweiten Schritt werden pathologische Ausformungen der jeweiligen Denkverzerrung besprochen: Den Patienten wird behutsam vermittelt, wie es durch Zuspitzungen (normaler) Denkfallen zu Problemen in der Alltagsbewältigung bis hin zum Wahn kommen kann. Dies wird mit Fallbeispielen zum Thema Psychose veranschaulicht, die den Teilnehmern Gelegenheit für den Austausch von Erfahrungen bieten. Der Patient wird angeleitet, eigene Denkfallen zu erkennen und zu entschärfen. Auch dysfunktionale Copingstrategien (Vermeidung, Gedankenunterdrückung) kommen in diesem Kontext zur Sprache, die sukzessive durch hilfreichere Bewältigungsstrategien ersetzt werden sollen.
Zu den problematischen Denkstilen, welche als mögliche Entstehungsmechanismen für Wahn diskutiert werden, zählen Verzerrungen des Zuschreibungsstils (z.B. ein selbstdienlicher Zuschreibungsstil, Modul 1), voreiliges Schlussfolgern (Modul 2 und 7), mangelnde Korrigierbarkeit (Modul 3), Defizite der sozialen Einfühlung (Modul 4 und 6), übermäßige Urteilssicherheit für Gedächtnisfehler (Modul 5) und depressive Denkschemata (Modul 8). Einschränkend muss darauf hingewiesen werden, dass manche der den acht Modulen zugrunde liegenden theoretischen Annahmen empirisch zwar gut belegt, jedoch weiterhin Gegenstand aktueller Forschungsdebatten sind (Freeman, 2007).
Die Behandlungsmodule werden im Rahmen einer Gruppenintervention durchgeführt. Das Metakognitive Training verfolgt das übergeordnete Ziel, die "kognitive Infrastruktur" des Wahns zu stören. In neueren Versionen des MKT wurde daher der Bezug zwischen den behandelten Denkstilen mit Wahn und Psychose stärker hervorgehoben. Zu Beginn unseres Vorhabens befürchteten wir, dass ein zu direktes und symptom-orientiertes Vorgehen viele Patienten überfordern könnte. Diese Sorge hat sich jedoch nicht bewahrheitet. Eine tiefergehende Auseinandersetzung mit individuellen Wahnthemen soll dennoch therapeutischen Einzelgesprächen vorbehalten sein. Die Materialien des Metakognitiven Trainings können hierfür selbstverständlich verwendet werden. Ab Sommer 2010 liegt zudem eine "Individualisierte Metakognitive Therapie für schizophrene Patienten" (MKT+) vor, die aufbauend auf dem Gruppenansatz vielfältige Materialien für eine Einzeltherapie enthält (Moritz, Veckenstedt, Randjbar & Vitzthum, in press).
Es war uns wichtig, kein theoriegeleitetes aber "trockenes" Trainingsprogramm zu entwickeln. Durch den interaktiven und unterhaltenden Charakter des Programms soll die Aufmerksamkeit der Patienten gefesselt und die Nachhaltigkeit der Trainingseffekte gesteigert werden. Entsprechend wurde auch auf "Pauk"-Aufgaben gänzlich verzichtet. Basale kognitive Störungen, wie z.B. Konzentrationsdefizite, sind daher nicht Gegenstand des Programms. Unseres Erachtens ist es fraglich, ob diesen Störungen der Status von spezifischen Vulnerabilitätsfaktoren der Schizophrenie zukommt. Vielfach sind entsprechende Auffälligkeiten auch bei anderen psychiatrischen Gruppen zu finden.
Da die Einheiten des Metakognitiven Trainings zumeist selbsterklärend sind und um eine möglichst individuelle Gestaltung des Trainings zu ermöglichen, waren wir bestrebt, das Manual kurz zu halten.
(*): Metakognition lässt sich beschreiben als "das Denken über unser Denken". Metakognition beinhaltet sowohl unsere Fähigkeit, Entscheidungen situationsgemäß auszuwählen, als auch die Art und Weise, wie wir Informationen bewerten, gewichten und wie wir mit möglichen kognitiven Einschränkungen umgehen.

Karten
Jeder Patient erhält eine gelbe und rote Karte, die problemlos in die Brieftasche passen (Kartenvorlagen erhalten Sie mit dem download des Manuals!). Auf der gelben Karte stehen drei essentielle Fragen, die den Patienten bewegen sollen, nochmals inne zu halten, bevor falsche, voreilige und v.a. folgenschwere Schlussfolgerungen gezogen werden:
1. Was sind die Beweise?; 2. Gibt es andere Sichtweisen?; 3. Selbst wenn ich recht habe - reagiere ich über?
Auf der roten Karte soll der Patient Namen und Rufnummern von Menschen und Institutionen eintragen, welche ihm helfen können, eine Krise zu meistern.

Reminder 
Every participant of the MCT training receives a yellow and a red card, that easily fits into a purse (the templates can be obtained together with the manual). The yellow card asks three essential questions, which may help to prevent the formation of hasty, false and consequential conclusions:
1. What is the evidence?; 2. Are there alternative views?; 3. Even if it's like that...do I over-react?
On the red card, the patients is encouraged to write down the names of persons and institutions with corresponding telephone numbers who may help when a crisis occurs.
Help us helping!
In view of the troubling financial situation of many psychiatric hospitals, it is our goal to provide the metacognitive training program (MCT) free of charge. However, research does not only consume much of the free-time of those involved but also vast financial resources. If you want to support the MCT, we would be very grateful for donations. Clearly, we will help you, whether or not you have made a donation. No one should feel morally obliged to make a contribution.
We guarantee that all donations will go into the further development of the MCT (future tasks: translation of modules into other languages, new graphics, hiring of students to perform MCT in institutions). On request, we can send you a donation receipt (please send us an email with your address at moritz@uke.de). Please inquire about different possibilities for sponsorships.

Introductie (uit de handleiding)
Waarom cognitieve training bij schizofrenie?
Schizofrenie is een complexe psychiatrische stoornis met wanen en hallucinaties als primaire symptomen.
In het afgelopen decennium heeft een wijziging plaatsgevonden in ons denken over schizofrenie en de behandeling ervan. Psychofarmacologisch behandeling met neuroleptica vormt nog steeds de kern van de behandeling. In het verleden bestond een diepgewortelde reserve ten aanzien van psychotherapie bij schizofrenie. Deze scepsis is in toenemende mate ondergraven. Tegen de achtergrond van het grote aantal patiënten dat niet of onvoldoende herstelt bij neuroleptica of stopt met medicatie vanwege bijwerkingen en/of ontbreken van ziekte-inzicht (Byerly, Nakonezny, & Lescouflair, 2007; Elkis, 2007; Voruganti, Baker, & Awad, 2008), heeft het zoeken naar complementaire psychotherapeutische en cognitieve strategieën in toenemende mate aan belang gewonnen. Van met name cognitief gedragstherapeutische behandelingen is aangetoond dat ze een zinvolle complementaire aanvulling vormen op psychofarmacologie (Wykes, Steel, Everitt, & Tarrier, 2008). De huidige metacognitieve training is gebaseerd op de theoretische uitgangspunten van het cognitief-gedragstherapeutische model bij schizofrenie, waarbij een enigszins andere therapeutische invalshoek is gekozen.
Het metacognitieve trainingsprogramma bestaat uit acht modules waarin veel voorkomende denkfouten en een eenzijdige manier van probleem oplossen op een speelse manier aan bod komen. Denkfouten, vertekeningen en een eenzijdige copingstijl kunnen afzonderlijk of samen de ontwikkeling van foutieve overtuigingen of zelfs waanideeën bevorderen (Freeman, 2007; Moritz & Woodward, 2007). Patiënten worden uitgenodigd kritisch te kijken naar hun manier van omgaan met problemen, deze te veranderen en de inhoud van de training toe te passen in de dagelijkse praktijk.
Omdat een psychose zelden plotseling ontstaat, maar meestal voorafgegaan wordt door geleidelijke veranderingen in de taxatie van eigen cognities of sociale omgeving , (bv. Klosterkötter, 1992), hopen we dat het verbeteren van metacognitieve vaardigheden een profylactische werking heeft. Huiswerkopdrachten, die aan het eind van de bijeenkomsten worden uitgedeeld, ondersteunen dit proces.
Elke module start met psycho-educatieve elementen en normaliserende alledaagse voorbeelden van de te behandelen denkstijl. Een domein (bijvoorbeeld overhaaste conclusies) wordt geïntroduceerd aan de hand van voorbeelden en oefeningen en de feilbaarheid van menselijke cognities wordt besproken en geïllustreerd. De tweede stap is het onder de aandacht brengen van bovenmatige (pathologische) vormen van elke cognitieve tendens. De deelnemers krijgen uitgelegd hoe uitvergroting van gangbare (normale) denkstijlen kan leiden tot problemen in het alledaagse leven en kan culmineren in waanvorming. Ter illustratie worden korte verhalen gepresenteerd van mensen met een psychose. Hierbij krijgen deelnemers die dat willen gelegenheid om eigen ervaringen uit te wisselen. Patiënten leren cognitieve valkuilen te ontdekken en daar niet in te lopen. Disfunctionele copingstrategieën (bijvoorbeeld, vermijden, onderdrukken van gedachten) worden hierbij onder de aandacht gebracht en manieren worden aangereikt om deze door meer behulpzame strategieën te vervangen.
Problematische denkstijlen met een potentieel luxerende werking voor het ontstaan van waanideeën zijn: vertekeningen bij attribueren (module 1), overhaaste conclusies (module 2 en 7), vasthouden aan overtuigingen bij confrontatie met informatie die de overtuiging in twijfel trekt (module 3), beperkt inlevingsvermogen (module 4 en 6), verhoogde zekerheid bij geheugenfouten (module 5) en depressogene denkschema's (module 8). Hoewel er ruimschoots empirische evidentie bestaat voor de validiteit van de theoretische verklaringen, is een aantal nog wel onderwerp van wetenschappelijke discussie (Freeman, 2007).
De modules worden uitgevoerd in het kader van een groepsinterventie. Het belangrijkste doel van de metacognitieve training is om verandering aan te brengen in de "cognitieve infrastructuur" bij waanvorming.
In de meest recente versie van de MCT benadrukken we de relatie tussen denkstijlen, wanen en psychose. We waren aanvankelijk bezorgd dat een confronterende en symptoomgerichte benadering veel patiënten mogelijk zou overvragen. Deze zorg is tot nu toe niet bewaarheid. Desalniettemin bevelen we aan om persoonsgebonden waanachtige thema's in individuele therapiesessies te bespreken. Vanzelfsprekend kan het materiaal uit de metacognitieve training hiervoor worden gebruikt.
We wilden geen theorie gestuurd trainingsprogramma met droge leerstof ontwikkelen. Het interactieve en onderhoudende karakter van de sessies beoogt de aandacht van patiënten vast te houden en het uiteindelijk trainingseffect te vergroten. Om dit doel te bereiken zagen we af van drill and practice oefeningen. Basale cognitieve beperkingen, zoals aandachtsstoornissen, zijn geen onderdeel van het programma. Dit soort beperkingen komen voor bij verschillende psychiatrische ziektebeelden en het is ook nog de vraag of zij een specifieke kwetsbaarheidfactor vormen voor psychose.
*: Metacognitie kunnen we omschrijven als het "denken over het denken". Hieronder valt ons vermogen om weloverwogen beslissingen te nemen, de manier waarop we informatie waarderen en afwegen en hoe we omgaan met onze cognitieve beperkingen.

Herinnering
Elke deelnemer aan de MCT training ontvang een gele en rode kaart die gemakkelijk in een portemonnee past*. Op de gele kaart staan drie centrale vragen die behulpzaam kunnen zijn om het trekken van overhaaste, foutieve conclusies met ingrijpende gevolgen te voorkomen: 1. Welke bewijzen heb ik?; 2. Op welke andere manier kan ik er ook naar kijken?; 3. Zelfs als ik gelijk heb...reageer ik dan niet te heftig?
Patiënten worden aangemoedigd om op de rode kaart namen en telefoonnummers te noteren van mensen en organisaties die kunnen helpen wanneer er sprake is van een crisis.

Introduction (tirée du manuel)
Pourquoi un autre programme d'entraînement cognitif?
Il y a plusieurs facteurs qui ont dirigé notre décision de développer ce programme d'entraînement des habiletés métacognitives*. Depuis plusieurs années, nous nous sommes préoccupés de trouver un moyen de transférer dans un programme d'intervention, la richesse des savoirs sur les distorsions métacognitives dans la schizophrénie. De plus, en tant que chercheurs fondamentalistes, nous souhaitions être impliqués plus personnellement dans le traitement des patients atteints de schizophrénie. Ce programme à pour intention de réduire le fossé actuel entre la compréhension avancée des processus cognitifs et métacognitifs dans la schizophrénie et son utilisation pratique dans le traitement clinique.
Les huit modules de ce programme ciblent les erreurs cognitives communes et les biais de résolution de problèmes associés à la schizophrénie. Ces erreurs et biais peuvent à eux seuls ou combinés culminer dans le développement et le maintien de fausses croyances jusqu'aux délires. Le programme poursuit le but de rendre les patients conscients de ces distorsions, de les entraîner à les voir de façon critique, de compléter ou de changer leur répertoire de résolution de problèmes. La psychose n'est pas un événement soudain et momentané. Le plus souvent, elle est le résultat de changements graduels dans la façon d'appréhender ses propres pensées et l'environnement social. L'amélioration des compétences métacognitives pourrait agir de façon prophylactique sur les rechutes psychotiques. Des exercices à domicile et des documents sont remis à la fin de chaque session pour assister le processus.
Parmi les styles de pensée problématiques reconnus comme pouvant contribuer au développement des idées délirantes, on peut lister des troubles de l'attribution (module 1), une tendance à sauter aux conclusions (conclusions hâtives) (module 2 et 7), un biais contre les preuves infirmantes (module 3), des déficits dans la théorie de l'esprit, c'est-à-dire dans la capacité de comprendre l'intention d'autrui (module 4 et 6), une confiance augmentée dans les erreurs de mémoire (module 5), et des déficits dans l'estime de soi (module 8). Certains de ces biais de raisonnement sont soutenus par des preuves empiriques fortes, d'autres restent sujet de débats scientifiques tenaces.
Les modules sont administrés dans le cadre d'un programme d'intervention en groupe. Le but principal de l'entraînement métacognitif est de changer les fondements cognitifs de l'idéation délirante. Dans les versions plus récentes du MCT, l'accent est mis sur la relation existant entre les styles de pensée, les délires et la psychose. L'inquiétude préalable que cette approche soit trop confrontante et éprouvante pour les patients s'est vite avérée infondée. Toutefois, il est recommandé que les thèmes délirants personnels soient abordés dans des sessions thérapeutiques individuelles. Le matériel et les supports de l'entraînement métacognitif peuvent être utilisés et intégrés dans une approche individuelle.
Nous n'avons pas voulu élaborer un simple programme conduit de manière théorique et ennuyeuse. Avec son caractère interactif et divertissant, les séances cherchent à capter l'attention des patients et exercer un certain impact. Pour atteindre ce but, nous nous sommes également abstenus d'intégrer dans le programme des tâches répétitives d'entraînement. Les disfonctionnements cognitifs de base, comme les problèmes d'attention, ne sont pas le sujet de ce programme. Ces déficits sont fréquents dans de nombreux troubles psychiatriques et il n'est pas sûr qu'ils représentent des facteurs de vulnérabilité spécifique à la psychose.
Du fait que la plupart des aspects du programme sont explicites, le manuel reste relativement bref et laisse la place pour des variations dans l'implantation de l'entraînement. C'est pourquoi la lecture du présent manuel ne se substitue pas à une lecture approfondie des concepts théoriques sous-jacents.
*: La métacognition peut être définie comme la capacité de penser nos propres processus mentaux. Elle implique la capacité de sélectionner la réponse appropriée. Elle comprend également la façon d'appréhender et de considérer les informations et la manière de gérer les limites cognitives.

Rappel
Les participants au programme MCT reçoivent une carte rouge et une carte jaune qui peut facilement entrer dans un porte-monnaie*. La carte jaune pose trois questions essentielles qui peuvent être utiles pour prévenir le développement d'une conclusion hâtive, fausse ou suivie de conséquences négatives. 1. Quelles sont les preuves ? ; 2. Quelles sont les autres alternatives? 3. Même si j'ai raison, est-ce que je ne réagis pas trop fort ?
Avec la carte rouge, les participants sont encouragés à écrire les noms des personnes et institutions avec les numéros de téléphone correspondants qui peuvent aider si des crises surviennent.
Dons/parrainage
Au vu de la situation financière problématique de nombreux hôpitaux psychiatriques, notre but est de fournir le programme d'entraînement des habiletés métacognitives gratuitement. Toutefois, la recherche consomme une grande partie des temps libres des personnes impliquées ainsi que des ressources financières.

Introducción (del manual)
¿Por qué otro programa de entrenamiento cognitivo?
Hay varios factores por los cuales nos hemos decidido a desarrollar el presente programa de Entrenamiento Metacognitivo . Durante muchos años, nos hemos dedicado a la cuestión de cómo transferir el amplio conocimiento de las distorsiones cognitivas y metacognitivas en la esquizofrenia a un programa de intervención. Por otra parte, como investigadores básicos que somos, queríamos implicarnos más personalmente en el tratamiento de pacientes con esquizofrenia. Este programa se propone reducir el vacío actual entre la avanzada comprensión de los fundamentos cognitivos y metacognitivos en la esquizofrenia y su aplicación práctica en el tratamiento clínico.
El programa de Entrenamiento Metacognitivo se compone de ocho módulos que cubren diferentes temas acerca de los errores cognitivos más comunes y los sesgos cognitivos que son típicos de la esquizofrenia. Se estima que estos errores y sesgos pueden culminar en la creación de falsas creencias hasta el punto de convertirse en delirios. Las sesiones tienen por objeto aumentar la conciencia del paciente sobre estas distorsiones y enseñarles a reflexionar sobre ellas de una forma crítica, a complementar y a cambiar su actual repertorio de soluciones de problemas. Dado que la psicosis no es un suceso repentino e instantáneo, sino que a menudo está precedida por un cambio gradual en la evaluación de los conocimientos propios y del entorno social, la potenciación de las competencias metacognitivas puede actuar como prevención de un episodio psicótico. Para ayudar en este proceso, se entrega a los participantes unas tareas para casa al final de cada sesión.
Entre los estilos de pensamiento problemáticos reconocidos como posibles contribuyentes al desarrollo de delirios se hallan los siguientes: un aumento en las atribuciones internas (Módulo 1), salto a conclusiones (Módulos 2 y 7), un sesgo hacia las evidencias disconfirmatorias de creencias iniciales (Módulo 3), incapacidad de tomar perspectiva o empatizar con otros (Módulos 4 y 6), un exceso de confianza en los errores de memoria (Módulo 5) y los patrones cognitivos depresivos (Módulo 8). A pesar de la gran base de datos empíricos sobre la validez de los estilos cognitivos, algunos de ellos siguen siendo objeto de debate científico.
Los módulos son administrados en el marco de un programa de intervención grupal. El propósito principal del EMC es cambiar la "infraestructura cognitiva" de la ideación delirante. En esta nueva versión del EMC hacemos hincapié en la relación entre los estilos de pensamiento, las alucinaciones y la psicosis. En un principio, nos preocupaba el hecho de que un enfoque de confrontación excesiva y orientado hacia los síntomas podría presionar demasiado a los pacientes. Sin embargo, esta preocupación no ha sido apoyada. No obstante, se recomienda que los temas de alucinaciones personales se traten en sesiones terapéuticas individuales. Se pueden adoptar materiales del Entrenamiento Metacognitivo para este propósito.
No hemos querido diseñar un programa meramente teórico. Gracias a su carácter interactivo y entretenido, las sesiones tienen que llamar la atención de los pacientes y ejercer un impacto sostenido. Para cumplir con este propósito, también nos hemos abstenido de incorporar tareas "drill-practice" que pudieran resultar redundantes o forzadas. Las disfunciones cognitivas básicas, tales como problemas de atención, no forman parte del programa. Estas deficiencias son comunes en una variedad de grupos de trastornos psiquiátricos, por lo que no queda claro si representan factores de vulnerabilidad específicos de la psicosis.
Dado que la mayoría de los aspectos del programa se explican por sí mismos, el manual se mantendrá relativamente corto, permitiendo así una variación individual en la aplicación del EMC. Sin embargo, por esta razón, la mera lectura de las siguientes secciones de este manual no puede sustituir a un estudio en profundidad de los conceptos teóricos. Por favor refiéranse a la bibliografía adjunta.
(*): Metacognición puede ser descrito como "una reflexión sobre el pensamiento propio" y consiste en la capacidad de seleccionar las respuestas adecuadas. También abarca la manera de evaluar y sopesar la información y cómo hacer frente a las limitaciones cognitivas.

Recordatorio
Cada participante recibe una tarjeta amarilla y una roja al final de su primer período de sesiones (véase página de internet), junto con las instrucciones sobre cómo utilizarlas*. La tarjeta amarilla plantea tres cuestiones fundamentales, que los pacientes deben consultar, cuando sea necesario. Por ejemplo, cuando uno se siente ofendido o injuriado él mismo debe preguntarse lo siguiente: 1. ¿Cuál es la evidencia?; 2. ¿Existen puntos de vista alternativos?; 3. Incluso si es así ... ¿estoy exagerando?
Estas preguntas están dirigidas hacia los pacientes para que rápidamente vuelvan a examinar las pruebas disponibles antes de precipitarse a asumir falsas decisiones.
En la tarjeta roja, se alienta al paciente a escribir los nombres y números de teléfono de las personas y las instituciones de su confianza que puedan ser de ayuda cuando sufra una crisis.
Donaciones/patrocinio
En vista de la preocupante situación financiera de muchos hospitales psiquiátricos, es nuestra meta ofrecer el programa de EMC de forma gratuita.

In view of the troubling financial situation of many psychiatric hospitals, it is our goal to provide the metacognitive training program (MCT) free of charge. However, research does not only consume much of the free-time of those involved but also vast financial resources. If you want to support the MCT, we would be very grateful for donations. Clearly, we will help you, whether or not you have made a donation. No one should feel morally obliged to make a contribution.
We guarantee that all donations will go into the further development of the MCT (future tasks: translation of modules into other languages, new graphics, hiring of students to perform MCT in institutions). On request, we can send you a donation receipt (please send us an email with your address at moritz@uke.de). Please inquire about different possibilities for sponsorships.

In view of the troubling financial situation of many psychiatric hospitals, it is our goal to provide the metacognitive training program (MCT) free of charge. However, research does not only consume much of the free-time of those involved but also vast financial resources. If you want to support the MCT, we would be very grateful for donations. Clearly, we will help you, whether or not you have made a donation. No one should feel morally obliged to make a contribution.
