A one-year follow-up of two forms of brief psychotherapy. 1977

V Patterson, and H Levene, and L Breger

How do patients who had brief behavior therapy evaluate change in themselves as compared to those who had brief psychoanalytically oriented psychotherapy a year following termination of their treatment? Restults of the follow-up study reveal that over-all, patients rated themselves at one-year follow-up as improved over their status at three months after therapy but less so than at the time of termination of therapy. The form of therapy did not make a difference in the patients' evaluation of change.
