Abstract
Objective Systems Training for Emotional Predictability and Problem Solving (STEPPS) is a group therapy in which patients with personality disorder are taught emotion and behaviour regulation skills. Since older adults regulate their emotions differently than younger adults, age-specific aspects are suggested to be taken into account in the treatment. Objectives of this study were to determine expert consensus on the applicability of STEPPS for older adults and determine which adjustments should possibly be implemented for a better fit for older adults with personality disorder.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Psychologist is the journal of the Australian Psychological Society’s College of Clinical Psychologists. The journal is international in scope, with an aim to keep abreast of local and international developments in the field of clinical psychology. The journal publishes peer-reviewed articles across a range of topics of broad general relevance to clinical psychologists working in clinical and health settings, including assessment and treatment of psychopathology, and issues relevant to training in clinical psychology. An important aim of Clinical Psychologist is to bridge the gap between clinical research and clinical practice by ensuring timely dissemination of high quality peer-reviewed articles. Clinical Psychologist publishes state of the art reviews, research papers, brief reports, and clinical case studies. The journal occasionally publishes special issues, guest edited by specialists, devoted to a single topic.
