Studiens syfte var att undersöka varför patienter valt att ensidigt avsluta sitt deltagande i KBT i grupp, vilka förväntningar de avhoppade patienterna hade haft på behandlingen, hur de upplevde behandlingen och om dessa upplevelser var relaterade till avhoppet. Semistrukturerade intervjuer utfördes med sju personer, vilka alla hade hoppat av från KBT-grupper innan behandlingen var slutförd. Reasons behind patients’ decisions to unilaterally terminate Cognitive Behavioral Group Therapy (CBGT), and whether the experience of the therapy was related to the termination of the treatment were examined. In addition to this, the patients’ expectations on the treatment prior to commencement and patients’ experiences of the treatment were examined. Semi-structured interviews were conducted
