Analyzed therapists' scores on the Community Mental Health Ideology (CMHI) and Democratic values scales and their sex and professional affiliation to predict the number of psychotherapy visits of 166 outpatients. A step-wise multiple regression indicated that all variables taken together accounted for 3% of the variance in treatment duration. A four-way analysis of variance revealed only a significant main effect for the CMHI scale. Thus, low-scoring CMHI therapists had significantly more therapy sessions with their clients than high-scoring CMHI therapists. The latter may emphasize briefer treatment approaches that stress outside resources and primary prevention.
分析治疗师在社区心理健康意识形态（CMHI）和民主价值观量表上的得分以及他们的性别和专业背景，以预测166名门诊患者的心理治疗就诊次数。逐步多元回归分析表明，所有变量共同解释了治疗时长方差的3%。四因素方差分析仅显示CMHI量表有显著的主效应。因此，CMHI得分低的治疗师与客户的治疗 sessions 显著多于CMHI得分高的治疗师。后者可能更强调强调外部资源和一级预防的简短治疗方法。 （注：原文中“therapy sessions”直译为“治疗会话”，这里根据语境意译为“治疗疗程”更合适些；“sessions”翻译为“疗程”更符合心理治疗领域语境。）
