In light of recent theoretical and empirical work that stresses the importance of both the client's and therapist's expressiveness for productive therapeutic process, an ordinal scale was developed and presented to assess levels of client and therapist expressiveness in the ongoing therapy interaction. Scale points were constructed on the basis of face validity and empirical findings with nominal classification systems for client and therapist expressiveness; they were defined in terms of stylistic features of language and voice quality. In addition to presenting reliability data that indicate that the scale can be used with considerable interrater agreement, a number of important questions were posed for future research on the client-therapist interaction.
鉴于近期的理论和实证研究强调了来访者和治疗师的表达能力对于有效的治疗过程的重要性,开发并呈现了一个序数量表,以评估在正在进行的治疗互动中来访者和治疗师的表达水平。量表分数是基于表面效度和关于来访者及治疗师表达能力的名义分类系统的实证研究结果构建的;它们是根据语言的文体特征和语音质量来定义的。除了给出表明该量表可在相当程度的评分者间一致性下使用的信度数据外,还提出了一些关于来访者 - 治疗师互动的未来研究的重要问题。
