Previous researches have indicated that self-reported positive affect and negative affect is changing in a healthy direction during Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).
The aim of the present study was to examine how affective personality is related to psychopathology before and after CBT.
A group of clients (n = 73) was measured before and after CBT, differentiated by their problem areas at pre-therapy (i.e., depressive, anxious and mixed).
After therapy, clients experienced higher positive affect (p < .02, d=0.66), lower negative affect (p < .001, d=0.98) and there was a significant change in the distribution of affective personality regardless of problem area, χ = 8.41, df = 3, two-tailed p = .04, 99% CI [0.03, 0.04]. The change in the distribution was largest for the two most relevant personality types, self-actualization and self-destructive affective personality.
Results indicate that CBT can achieve changes in affect and affective personality.
先前的研究表明,在认知行为疗法(CBT)期间,自我报告的积极情绪和消极情绪正朝着健康的方向变化。
本研究的目的是考察在CBT前后,情感人格与精神病理学之间的关系。
一组来访者(n = 73)在CBT前后接受测量,根据治疗前的问题领域进行区分(即抑郁、焦虑和混合型)。
治疗后,来访者体验到更高的积极情绪(p <.02,d = 0.66),更低的消极情绪(p <.001,d = 0.98),并且无论问题领域如何,情感人格的分布都有显著变化,χ = 8.41,自由度 = 3,双侧p =.04,99%置信区间[0.03, 0.04]。对于两种最相关的人格类型,即自我实现和自我毁灭情感人格,分布变化最大。
结果表明,CBT可以实现情感和情感人格的改变。
