Study Notes
History of Psychotherapy Research
- Psychotherapy is the informed application of psychological principles to help individuals change maladaptive behaviors, feelings, or thoughts.
- The Common Factors Theory in psychotherapy suggests that different methods share common factors, contributing significantly to effectiveness, unlike the belief that success is only due to specific factors.
- Key common factors include the therapeutic relationship (empathy, trust, collaboration), client expectation of help (placebo effect), rationale or conceptual scheme (clear explanation and structured approach), and active participation (engagement from both client and therapist).
- Psychotherapy research has evolved through four phases:
- Phase I (1900s-1940s): The birth of psychotherapy research, including the emergence of outcome and process research. Freud's work and Rosenzweig's study on common methods are examples of early work.
- Phase II (1950s-1960s): The quest for scientific rigor, marked by increased focus on justifying psychotherapy, including process studies, to validate various approaches.
- Phase III (1970s-1980s): The emergence of meta-analysis and randomization control trials (RCTs). This phase involved a shift to more rigorous scientific methods. The Treatment of Depression Collaborative Research Program (TDCRP) is a prime example.
- Phase IV (1990-present): Institutionalization of evidence-based practice in medicine and psychology. A notable event was the APA adopting evidence-based practice in psychology.
Psychotherapy: Main Approaches
- There are multiple psychotherapy approaches, rooted in various schools of psychology.
- Psychoanalysis/Psychodynamic Therapies: Focuses on unconscious motivations.
- Behavior Therapy: Aims to replace harmful behaviors with beneficial ones, relying on learning principles.
- Humanistic Therapy: Emphasizes personal growth and the inherent goodness of individuals.
- Cognitive Therapy: Focuses on thoughts and beliefs, aiming to identify and change negative thought patterns.
- Integrative/Holistic Therapy: Integrates elements from different approaches to tailor treatment to individual needs.
Evidence-Based Practice in Psychology
- Evidence-based practice (EBPP) integrates the best available research with clinical expertise within patient characteristics, culture, and preferences.
- The purpose of EBPP to promote effective psychological practice and enhance public health.
- The APA adopted evidence-based practice in psychology in 2006.
Psychotherapy Research
- Psychotherapy research is the scientific study of psychotherapy outcomes and processes, aiming to make it an evidence-based practice founded on scientific data, rather than just clinical intuition.
- Clinical expertise and scientific research are crucial components in psychotherapy research.
