Behavior change through psychotherapy is frequently accomplished through the use of homework assignments conducted by patients between treatment sessions. There has been little attention directed at adherence to such behavioral prescriptions. This study compares the effects of Verbal versus Written behavioral prescriptions on recall of self-reported adherence to therapeutic homework assignments. Thirty subjects were randomly assigned to the Verbal and Written conditions in a counterbalanced, within-subjects, crossover design. Written prescriptions led to significantly better recall of and adherence to homework assignments.
通过心理治疗实现行为改变通常是通过患者在治疗期间完成家庭作业来达成的。对于遵循此类行为规定的关注甚少。本研究比较了口头与书面行为规定对自我报告的治疗性家庭作业完成情况回忆的影响。30名受试者被随机分配到口头组和书面组，采用平衡的、受试者内交叉设计。书面规定导致对家庭作业的回忆和遵循情况显著更好。
