A dozen experimental studies have assessed the effectiveness of paradoxical interventions with agoraphobia, depression, insomnia and procrastination. The studies suggest that paradoxical interventions are more effective than no treatment and placebo treatment and are as effective and, in some instances, more effective than other behavioral interventions. Several studies show that the wording of paradoxical interventions affects their impact.
十几项实验研究评估了矛盾意向疗法对广场恐惧症、抑郁症、失眠症和拖延症的疗效。研究表明,矛盾意向疗法比不治疗和安慰剂治疗更有效,并且在某些情况下,其效果与其他行为干预疗法相当,甚至更佳。多项研究表明,矛盾意向疗法的措辞会影响其效果。
