Reports the retraction of "Changes in meaning in life, working alliance, and outcome in psychodynamic psychotherapy: What leads to what" by Katie L. Rim, Clara E. Hill and Dennis M. Kivlighan Jr. (, 2022[Nov], Vol 69[6], 835-844). The following article (https://doi.org/10.1037/cou0000636) is being retracted. This retraction is at the request of coauthors Kivlighan and Hill after the results of an investigation by the University of Maryland Institutional Review Board (IRB). The IRB found that the study included data from between one and four therapy clients of the Maryland Psychotherapy Clinic and Research Laboratory (MPCRL) who either had not been asked to provide consent or had withdrawn consent for their data to be included in the research. Rim was not responsible for obtaining and verifying participant consent but agreed to the retraction of this article. (The following abstract of the original article appeared in record 2022-87044-001.) We examined how meaning in life was associated with working alliance (WA) and outcomes, all from the client perspective. Random intercept lagged cross-panel analyses were used to analyze data from intake and after every eight sessions for the first 24 sessions of open-ended individual psychodynamic psychotherapy from 94 clients nested within 12 therapists. We found that, for all four time periods, working alliance in one 8-week time period predicted both Meaning in Life Measure-Experience (MILM-E) and Meaning in Life Measure-Reflectivity (MILM-R) in the subsequent time period, and MILM-R in one 8-week time period predicted client outcome in the subsequent time period. These findings suggest that having a strong working alliance is associated with clients developing more meaning in life, and reflectivity about meaning in life is associated with clients improving in psychotherapy. Implications for practice and research are discussed. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved).
撤回 Katie L. Rim、Clara E. Hill 和 Dennis M. Kivlighan Jr. 的“心理动力学心理治疗中生活意义的变化、工作联盟和结果：是什么导致了什么”一文（，2022[11 月]，第 69[6]卷，835-844）。以下文章（https://doi.org/10.1037/cou0000636）正在被撤回。这一撤回是应马里兰大学机构审查委员会（IRB）调查的共同作者 Kivlighan 和 Hill 的要求做出的。IRB 发现，该研究包括马里兰心理治疗诊所和研究实验室（MPCRL）的一到四名治疗客户的数据，这些客户要么没有被要求提供同意，要么已经撤回同意将他们的数据纳入研究。Rim 没有负责获取和验证参与者的同意，但同意撤回这篇文章。（原始文章的摘要如下：我们从客户的角度检查了生活意义与工作联盟（WA）和结果的关系。使用随机截距滞后交叉面板分析，对 12 名治疗师中的 94 名嵌套客户的开放式个体心理动力学心理治疗的前 24 次治疗中的每次治疗的 8 次就诊的摄入和之后的数据进行了分析。我们发现，在所有四个时间段内，一个 8 周时间内的工作联盟预测了随后一个 8 周时间内的生活意义测量经验（MILM-E）和生活意义测量反思（MILM-R），并且一个 8 周时间内的 MILM-R 预测了随后时间内的客户结果。这些发现表明，拥有强大的工作联盟与客户发展更多的生活意义有关，而对生活意义的反思与客户在心理治疗中的改善有关。讨论了对实践和研究的影响。（PsycInfo 数据库记录（c）2023 APA，保留所有权利）。
