随机抽取的美国心理协会43分部或婚姻与家庭治疗协会成员的夫妻治疗师样本,完成了一项关于夫妻问题领域和夫妻治疗中遇到的治疗问题的调查。治疗师根据发生情况、治疗难度和破坏性影响对问题区域进行评分。这三个维度的综合表明,最重要的问题是缺乏爱的感觉、权力斗争、沟通、婚外情和不切实际的期望。将这些发现与S. K. Geiss和K. D. O'Leary(1981)获得的治疗师评级进行比较,可以发现在过去15年中,夫妻治疗中出现的问题相当稳定。治疗师产生的与负面结果相关的特征也被确定,最常见的是伴侣不能或不愿意改变,缺乏承诺。
Randomly selected samples of practicing couple therapists who were members of the American Psychological Association's Division 43 or the Association for Marriage and Family Therapy completed a survey of couple problem areas and therapeutic issues encountered in couple therapy. Therapists rated problem areas in terms of occurrence, treatment difficulty, and damaging impact. A composite of these 3 dimensions suggested that the most important problems were lack of loving feelings, power struggles, communication, extramarital affairs, and unrealistic expectations. Comparison of the findings with therapist ratings obtained by S. K. Geiss and K. D. O'Leary (1981) suggests considerable stability in presenting problems in couple therapy over the past 15 years. Therapist-generated characteristics associated with negative outcome were also identified, the most common being partners' inability or unwillingness to change and lack of commitment.
