Randomized controlled trial evaluating feedback to community-based therapists based on patient reports of trust and respect.
Objective: Patient trust/respect toward their therapists may be an important component of patient-therapist relationships. This randomized controlled trial evaluated the impact of providing weekly feedback to therapists regarding patient ratings of trust/respect toward their therapist.
Method: Adult patients seeking mental health treatment at four community clinics (two community mental health centers and two community-based intensive treatment programs) were randomized to either having their primary therapist receive weekly symptom feedback-only or symptoms plus trust/respect feedback. Data were collected both prior to and during COVID-19. The primary outcome measure was a measure of functioning obtained weekly at baseline and the subsequent 11 weeks, with the primary analysis focusing on patients who received any treatment. Secondary outcomes included measures of symptoms and trust/respect.
Results: Among 233 consented patients, 185 had a postbaseline assessment and were analyzed for the primary and secondary outcomes (median age of 30 years; 5.4% Asian, 12.4% Hispanic, 17.8% Black, 67.0% White, 4.3% more than 1 race, and 5.4% unknown; 64.4% female). On the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Social Roles and Activities scale (primary outcome), the trust/respect plus symptom feedback group had significantly greater improvements over time than the symptom alone feedback group (p = .0006, effect size d = .22). Secondary outcome measures of symptoms and trust/respect also showed statistically significant greater improvement for the trust/respect feedback group.
Conclusions: In this trial, trust/respect feedback to therapists was associated with significantly greater improvements in treatment outcomes. Evaluation of the mechanisms of such improvements is needed. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved).
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology® (JCCP) publishes original contributions on the following topics: the development, validity, and use of techniques of diagnosis and treatment of disordered behaviorstudies of a variety of populations that have clinical interest, including but not limited to medical patients, ethnic minorities, persons with serious mental illness, and community samplesstudies that have a cross-cultural or demographic focus and are of interest for treating behavior disordersstudies of personality and of its assessment and development where these have a clear bearing on problems of clinical dysfunction and treatmentstudies of gender, ethnicity, or sexual orientation that have a clear bearing on diagnosis, assessment, and treatmentstudies of psychosocial aspects of health behaviors. Studies that focus on populations that fall anywhere within the lifespan are considered. JCCP welcomes submissions on treatment and prevention in all areas of clinical and clinical–health psychology and especially on topics that appeal to a broad clinical–scientist and practitioner audience. JCCP encourages the submission of theory–based interventions, studies that investigate mechanisms of change, and studies of the effectiveness of treatments in real-world settings. JCCP recommends that authors of clinical trials pre-register their studies with an appropriate clinical trial registry (e.g., ClinicalTrials.gov, ClinicalTrialsRegister.eu) though both registered and unregistered trials will continue to be considered at this time.
