Through a critical review of literature, authors suggest a methodological reflexion about problems in evaluation of effects of psychotherapies of schizophrenics, taking into account not only individual techniques but also institutional ones with psychotherapeutic orientations. Among the main difficulties are: evaluation with too much unspecific and over simplified criteria, for example criterium of rehospitalisation; lack of real comparability between groups, or techniques, and lack of validity of randomisation, still considered as a pawn of methodological rigour; diversity of levels of experience, and education of therapists, too unmatched model of functional organisation of the different centers, and in the same time too unequal recruitment of patients and at length of proposed therapeutic programs. Moreover, and even before these methodological bias, a more basic obstacle must be considered. It is the non-opening of models to the falsification, denounced by Bignami as the impossible verification of the heuristic value of the proposed models, ie the impossible verification of the utility of the proposed programs for individual therapies of schizophrenics.
