Das Buch informiert uber die kulturelle Pragung psychischer Symptombildung, interkulturelle kollektive Ubertragungsmechanismen, die Lebenswelten von Migranten und den besonderen ethnosoziokulturellen Hintergrund der grossten Migrantengruppen (turkisch-russisch-polnisch).

Most articles (28) present studies focusing on European host countries. The focus on Europe is justified if we take into consideration the increased number of refugees and migrants who have come to Europe in recent years. However, there are also articles which present studies from countries in other continents. T...
Abstract: Introduction: Cancer-affected patients experience high distress due to various burdens. One way to expand psycho-oncological support is through digital interventions.

This intervention is currently evaluated in the Reduct trial, a multicenter randomized controlled trial. Methods: The Make It Training optimized was developed in six steps: A patient need and demand assessment, development and acceptability analysis of a prototype, the formation of a patient advisory council, the revision of the training, implementation into a web app, and the developme...
