在3个模拟实验中检查了改变治疗原理对[心理治疗中]治疗变化预期的影响。在每一个实验中,本科生听取了替代治疗的描述,适用于临床病例,并评估治疗可能导致客户改善的程度。实验1评估了不同的治疗的体面和声望值的影响;实验2研究了成功治疗的情况下,包括在治疗描述的例子的影响;实验3研究了治疗的重点是影响,认知和行为,而不是单独的行为和描述的治疗技术术语,而不是普通的语言产生不同的期望治疗的变化。当治疗被认为是基于科学研究、经过临床试验检验、相对于传统疗法是新颖的,以及当治疗描述中包含了成功治疗的病例范例时,治疗会产生更大的治疗变化预期,得到更有利的评价,并被视为更有效。当治疗被描述为具有更广泛的关注点(情感、认知和行为)并以技术术语进行描述时,它会产生对治疗变化的更大期望,并且比仅关注行为或用普通语言描述治疗时更有利。
The effects of altering the treatment rationale on expectancies for therapeutic change [in psychotherapy] were examined in 3 analog experiments. In each experiment, undergraduate students listened to descriptions of alternative treatments as applied to a clinical case and evaluated the extent to which therapy was likely to lead to improvements in the client. Experiment 1 evaluated the effect of varying the respectability and prestige value of treatment; experiment 2 examined the influence of examples of successfully treated cases included in the treatment description; experiment 3 examined if treatment focusing on affect, cognition and behavior rather than on behavior alone and description of treatment in technical jargon rather than ordinary language generated different expectancies for therapeutic change. Treatments generated greater expectancies for therapeutic change, were evaluated more favorably and were viewed as more potent when they were said to be based on scientific research, tested in clinical trials and novel in relation to traditional therapies and when case exemplars who had been successfully treated were included in the treatment description. When treatment was described as having a broader focus (affect, cognition and behavior) and persented in technical jargon, it generated greater expectancies for therapeutic change and was evaluated more favorably than when the focus was on behavior alone or when treatment was described in ordinary language.
