Universitair Psychiatrisch Centrum St. Jozef, Leuvensesteenweg 517, B-3070 Kortenberg The authors tried to assess whether differentiating aspects of the treatment ideology of two therapeutic communities (psychoanalytic-psychotherapeutic and orthopedagogical were realised in the actual psychosocial milieux of the communities.
