To achieve higher return-to-work rates, psychosomatic rehabilitation is expected to offer treatments tailored to workplace demands. This pilot study is the first to examine the effects of a new workplace-oriented medical rehabilitation program for nursing professions. <b>Methods:</b> A total of N = 145 depressed patients in nursing occupations (86.9 % female; 50.9 ± 7.34 years) took part in a workplace-oriented rehabilitation program for nursing professions. At admission they were compared to N = 147 depressed patients (63.27 % female; 49.36 ± 7.58 years) in non-nursing professions regarding patterns of work-related experience and behaviour (AVEM) using a MANOVA with follow-up ANOVAs for individual subscales. Changes in work-related attitudes among the nursing professions following completion of the intervention were assessed using a MANOVA followed by repeated measures ANOVAs. The effect of the workplace- oriented intervention on depressiveness (BDI-II) was compared to a treatment program for depression using a mixed model after taking potentially confounding variables into account. <b>Results:</b> At entry, depressed patients in nursing professions scored significantly higher on AVEM scale willingness to work to exhaustion and lower on AVEM scale distancing ability compared to depressed patients in other professions. Following completion of the workplace-oriented intervention program for nursing professions, participants showed a significant reduction on AVEM scales subjective importance of work, willingness to work to exhaustion, and striving for perfection. Increasing scores were observed on the distancing ability and life satisfaction scales. Depression scores had significantly improved at discharge in both participants of the work-oriented intervention and the disorder-specific intervention for depressive disorders, whereas neither group differences nor interaction effects were found. <b>Conclusions:</b> The work-oriented intervention for nursing professions successfully induced changes in maladaptive work-related attitudes.

Dieser Schritt bestätigt die Verbundenheit der Kommunikationswissenschaft mit den beiden führenden deutschen Fachzeitschriften der Disziplin. Damit sollte sich eine Konsolidierung der Auflagen einstellen, die das weitere Bestehen der Zeitschriften sichert. Seit dem Frühjahr 2007 steht die ›Publizistik‹ für die Jahrgänge 2005-2007 zusätzlich zur Printausgabe auch online zur Verfügung (www.publizistik-digital.de) und bietet so einen schnellen Zugriff auf die Inhalte sowie die Recherche aus den Datenbanksystemen der Bibliotheken heraus. Der kontinuierliche Zufluss von Manuskripten demonstriert die Bedeutung der herkömmlichen Fachzeitschrift für wissenschaftliche Veröffentlichungen. Eine Voraussetzung für das Ansehen, das Publikationen in akademischen Journals genießen, ist das »Peer review«, also die Begutachtung von Manuskripten durch Angehörige der Disziplin, um so einen hohen Standard zu gewährleisten, aber auch um den Autorinnen und Autoren Feedback zu ihren Angeboten zu liefern. Bei der ›Publizistik‹ als Herausgeberzeitschrift hat die Begutachtung durch die Herausgeber Tradition. Zusätzlich werden für jedes Manuskript zwei externe Gutachter herangezogen, die nach sachlichen Kriterien bestimmt werden. Die Manuskripte gehen in der Redaktion ein, werden dort – sofern das noch nicht gewährleistet ist – anonymisiert und erst dann an die internen und externen Gutachter weitergeleitet, so dass eine blinde Begutachtung erfolgt. Diese orientiert sich an den Kriterien, die die DGPuK im Auswahlverfahren für ihre Jahrestagungen verwendet, lässt aber auch eine darüber hinausgehende Stellungnahme zu. Die Voten der Gutachterinnen und Gutachter entscheiden über Annahme oder Ablehnung, wobei den externen Gutachten besonderes Gewicht beigemessen wird. Redaktion und Herausgebergremium bedanken sich bei den externen Gutachtern für ihre Unterstützung. Dieses anonyme Bewertungsverfahren ist eine wichtige Voraussetzung für die Aufnahme der ›Publizistik‹ in den internationalen »Social Science Citation Index (SSCI)«, eine Art Adelsprädikat für wissenschaftliche Zeitschriften. Wir bemühen uns derzeit erneut darum. Ein großes Problem für nicht-englischsprachige Zeitschriften besteht aber darin, dass ihre Beiträge hinreichend oft in SSCI-Zeitschriften zitiert werden müssen.
