Abstract
A controlled trial to improve perceived health in a sample of long-term unemployed persons was conducted. As primary endpoint the SF12-questionnaire was used. The intervention was tailored to the specific needs of the long-term unemployed combining individual sessions based on motivational interviewing and group sessions designed with the participation of the participants. 365 participants were enrolled in the study. 287 or, respectively, 148 unemployed persons participated at the 3-months/12-months follow-up assessments. A positive effect of the intervention in the setting of long-term unemployed persons has been shown for perceived health, mental health and changes towards more physical activity and healthier nutrition.
