In this study, written case vignettes that manipulated locus of control symptoms, class, and sex of the clients were presented to 174 Australian clinical psychologists. Therapists' expectations of success with clients presented in the vignettes were found to be primarily a function of the interaction between the therapist's and the hypothetical client's locus of control. In addition, some variance was explained by the symptoms of clients in the vignettes. Clients with mild problems were generally rated more favorably than clients with severe problems.
在本研究中，向174名澳大利亚临床心理学家展示了一些书面案例 vignettes，这些案例 vignettes 对来访者的控制点症状、阶层和性别进行了操控。结果发现，治疗师对案例 vignettes 中所呈现的来访者取得成功的期望主要是治疗师与假设来访者的控制点之间相互作用的函数。此外，案例 vignettes 中来访者的症状也解释了一些差异。有轻微问题的来访者通常比有严重问题的来访者得到更积极的评价。
