Alliance, Technique, and their Interactions in Predicting Outcome of Behavioral, Cognitive, and Brief Dynamic Therapy

摘要: With depressed elderly patients treated in behavioral (BT), cognitive (CT) or brief dynamic therapy (BDT), the prediction of outcome by alliance, technique (exploratory and supportive), their interactions was examined. The alliance rated on CALPAS-R, Inventory Therapeutic Strategies (ITS). In BT, pretherapy depression levels predicted outcome, as did more exploratory interventions provided context poorer alliances at midtherapy. CT, throughout treatment, BDT, some dimensions techniques midtherapy; furthermore, use better tended to predict outcomes, a finding contrary ones observed BT CT. Therefore, differential processes were acros...
