| Summary |
The content of this volume represents the proceedings of the Second Conference on Research in Psychotherapy held in 1961. The book is organized according to three conference topics: 1. Research problems relating to measuring personality change in psychotherapy. The emphasis here rested on a thorough discussion of relevant variables in patients so as to allow significant assessments of change as a result of therapy; techniques for measuring personality change; selection of patients in terms of predictor variables. 2. Research problems relating to the psychotherapist's contribution to the treatment process. Questions to be dealt with under this heading included: ways of evaluating the contribution of the therapist's personality and attitudes upon progress and outcome of therapy; effects of variations in therapist behavior upon the process of therapy. 3. Research problems relating to the definition, measurement, and analysis of significant variables in psychotherapy, such as transference, resistance, etc. The purpose here was to bridge the gap between dynamic events observed in the clinical situation and their assessment and measurement by objective means.
