Reassessing Psychotherapy Research

Critically assessing psychotherapy research, this volume examines traditional substantive results, research methods, theoretical and metatheoretical models, as well as general aspects of the conduct of inquiry. In addition, each chapter in this groundbreaking volume contains suggestions and, in some cases, examples of alternative investigative strategies that can augment traditional psychotherapy research. Comprehensive in scope, the book covers all levels of research from choice of constructs and designs to ways of analyzing and interpreting data or implicit theoretical assumptions.
