Developed a test designed to measure 4 stages of change hypothesized to account for a temporal dimension in the change process occurring in psychotherapy:(1) precontemplation,(2) contemplation,(3) action, and (4) maintenance. An initial pool of items was reduced to a final test of 32 items on the basis of principal components analysis, Chronbach's coefficient alpha, and item analysis results. 155 Ss commencing psychotherapy were administered the questionnaire; they returned it before their 3rd therapy session. A cluster analysis was performed on the standardized scores for each S on each of the 4 scales. The resulting 18-cluster solution produced 7 major and 2 minor client profiles that were highly distinct and that represented 90% of the Ss.(13 ref)(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
