Abstract: The authors tried to assess whether differentiating aspects of the treatment ideology of two therapeutic communities (psychoanalytic-psychotherapeutic and orthopedagogical were realised in the actual psychosocial milieux of the communities. Hypotheses were constructed about the differences in treatment ideology between the two communities, on the results on the Ward Atmosphere Scale Form C, which measure many aspects of the psychosocial milieu. The results show differences in the hypothesised direction, and confirm the accomplishment of differences in treatment milieu between the two therapeutic communities.
