In an attempt to replicate previous findings, this study compared the change processes that psychologists report using when treating clients (n = 132) and when treating themselves (n = 140) for alcohol abuse. The results essentially replicated earlier research in that employment of particular change processes varied as a function of theoretical orientation for psychologists' client change but not for psychologists' self-change. Several processes, such as stimulus control and self-liberation, were employed more often with self-change, but medication more often with clients. Five possible explanations for this pattern and a general "facilitation effect" are discussed.
为了复制先前的研究结果，本研究比较了心理学家在治疗酗酒客户（n = 132）和治疗自己（n = 140）时所报告使用的改变过程。结果基本上复制了早期的研究，即特定改变过程的使用因心理学家对客户改变的理论取向而异，而对心理学家自我改变则不然。一些过程，如刺激控制和自我解放，在自我改变中使用得更频繁，但药物治疗在治疗客户时使用得更频繁。讨论了这种模式的五种可能解释以及一种普遍的“促进效应”。
