Abstract

The doctor-patient communication has been criticized, in the media as well as in medical journals, and the topic of the present article is the psychological aspects of this communication. First we describe the typical conditions laid down in the very communication and then we look at the general and specific conditions of the medical communication. Our main point of view is that good communication must be an essential part of the medical service, and that this fact has ethical as well as practical consequences. Finally, we unfold the ethical consequences and touch upon the practical consequences in our short discussion of the communicative model employed by communication projects within the Nordic Cancer Union and by the Danish Cancer Association in the beginning of the 90'es, now taught at the training courses in communicative skills arranged by the Danish Medical Association.

Ophavsret er tidsskriftets og forfatternes. Det er gældende praksis, at artikler publiceret i Psyke & Logos, som efterfølgende oversættes til andet sprog, af forfatteren frit kan publiceres i internationale tidsskrifter, dog således at det ved reference fremgår, at den oversatte artikel har et forlæg i en dansksproget version i Psyke & Logos. Artikler kan frit deles og linkes til på forsknings- og undervisningsnetværk (så som Blackboard). Link foretrækkes, fordi det giver oplysning om brug af tidsskriftets artikler.
