during ruptures, and to assess the relationship between therapists' adherence to these<br />
treatments and outcome.<br />
To investigate therapists' technical behavior during ruptures, a validated measure<br />
of therapist technique will be used to assess therapists' utilization of relational, cognitive<br />
behavioral and dynamic interventions during ruptures. In order to clarify the relationship<br />
between treatment interventions and outcome, therapists' use of these treatment<br />
interventions will be correlated with outcome, as defined by two patient self-report<br />
outcome measures: a measure of psychiatric symptoms (SCL-90-R) and a measure of<br />
interpersonal distress (IIP-64).<br />
Research Hypotheses:<br />
1. It is expected that relational therapists will use relational interventions more<br />
than will cognitive behavioral therapists. Furthermore, it is expected that cognitive<br />
behavioral therapists will use cognitive behavioral interventions more than will<br />
relational therapists.<br />
2. It is expected that relational therapists will utilize relational interventions<br />
significantly more than interventions from other orientations (e.g., cognitive behavioral<br />
and dynamic interventions). Furthermore, it is expected that cognitive behavioral<br />
therapists will utilize cognitive behavioral interventions significantly more than<br />
interventions from other orientations (e.g., relational and dynamic interventions).<br />
