To compare the effect of clinician type on the outcome for adult mental health clients treated by trainee and qualified clinical psychologists.
Naturalistic, non-random between-participants group design: a group of 60 adult mental health out-patients treated by trainees and a matched group of 60 patients treated by qualified clinical psychologists.
Participants completed a range of established measures at assessment and outcome of their treatment during routine clinical practice.
Significant improvements in mental health were made for both groups from assessment to outcome; however, no significant effect of clinician type was evident.
A variety of factors (e.g. quantity of supervision) contributing to trainee effectiveness are identified and discussed.
比较临床医生类型对接受实习临床心理学家和合格临床心理学家治疗的成年心理健康患者治疗结果的影响。
自然主义的、非随机的组间参与者设计:一组60名接受实习医生治疗的成年心理健康门诊患者和一组与之匹配的60名接受合格临床心理学家治疗的患者。
参与者在常规临床实践的评估和治疗结果时完成了一系列既定的测量。
从评估到治疗结果,两组患者的心理健康状况均有显著改善;然而,临床医生类型没有明显的显著影响。
