Predictors of dropout in cognitive processing therapy for PTSD: An examination of in-session treatment processes
Behav Res Ther. 2023 Nov 8;171:104428. doi: 10.1016/j.brat.2023.104428. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDropout rates for treatments for adult posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are high. Process research can reveal client factors during treatment that predict dropout. An observational coding system was used to code client processes in audio-recorded early sessions of cognitive processing therapy (CPT), a gold-standard treatment for PTSD. Data are from a randomized controlled noninferiority trial of CPT and written exposure therapy (WET), with higher rates of dropout in CPT than WET (39.7% vs. 6.4%). Participants in this s...

Effects of imagery rescripting and imaginal exposure on voluntary memory
This study investigates whether ImRs and ImE distort voluntary memory of an analogue trauma. We presented a trauma film to N = 120 healthy participants (Session 1) and randomly allocated them to one of two intervention conditions (receiving one session of ImRs or ImE) or to a no-intervention control condition (NIC) afterwards (Session 2). Voluntary memory was assessed using a free recall (Sessions 2 and 3), and a cued recall as well as a recognition task (both Sessions 3 and 4). The ImRs and ImE groups did not differ from NIC in the cued recall task and the recognition task. However, ImE (compared to ImRs and NIC) led to a...

Is internet-based parent training for everyone? Predictors and moderators of outcomes in group vs. internet-based parent training for children with disruptive behavior problems
This study aims to evaluate possible predictors and moderators of outcome, completion and engagement in parent training when delivered in group or through the internet. A recent randomized controlled non-inferiority trial (N = 161) demonstrated equal effectiveness of the parent training program Comet when delivered in group (gComet) and through the internet (iComet). Demographic, clinical and theory-driven variables were studied to find predictors and moderators of treatment effect, completion and engagement. Linear mixed effects models were used to determine predictors and moderators of change in disruptive behavior from ...

On the importance of identifying mechanisms and active ingredients of psychological treatments
Behav Res Ther. 2023 Oct 28;170:104425. doi: 10.1016/j.brat.2023.104425. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThis commentary addresses the thought-provoking article by Lorenzo-Luaces (in press). We review areas of both agreement and disagreement with the author's points, noting that readers should not infer that research into active ingredients and mechanisms is pointless. We conclude with a call for more research into the mechanisms of therapeutic change and the active ingredients of therapeutic interventions, with the aim of disseminating treatments that are both effective and efficient.PMID:37913558 | DOI:10.1016/j.brat.2023....

Persistence of extensively trained avoidance is not elevated in anxiety disorders in an outcome devaluation paradigm
CONCLUSIONS: In this study, anxiety disorders were characterized by reduced approach but not stronger habitual avoidance. These results do not indicate a direct association between anxiety disorders and the acquisition of pervasive habitual avoidance in this devaluation paradigm.PMID:37879245 | DOI:10.1016/j.brat.2023.104417 (Source: Behaviour Research and Therapy)

Cognitive Therapy-as-Usual versus Cognitive Therapy plus the Memory Support Intervention for adults with depression: 12-month outcomes and opportunities for improved efficacy in a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSIONS: The findings highlight ways to strengthen the efficacy of the Memory Support Intervention, such as applying memory support strategies across a wider variety of treatment contents, which in turn, may boost patient recall and outcomes.PMID:37879246 | DOI:10.1016/j.brat.2023.104419 (Source: Behaviour Research and Therapy)
