Rosenberg and M. Kay Jankowski Lisa R. Fortuna Dartmouth Medical School University of Massachusetts Medical Center Stanley D. Rosenberg and Kim T. Mueser Dartmouth Medical School The study explored the feasibility and efficacy of a manualized cognitive restructuring program for treating adolescents suffering from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Nine girls and 3 boys (mean age 16 years; range ϭ 14–18), with PTSD, were recruited from a community mental health center and a tertiary health care center and enrolled in a pilot study. The adolescents were seen weekly for 12–16 weeks of individual treatment. Variables assessed included: trauma history, PTSD diagnosis and severity, depression, substance abuse, and client satisfaction. Twelve adolescents consented to treatment; 9 completed the program. The number of types of traumas reported averaged 6.5 (range ϭ 1–13). Paired t tests were used to test prepost change for PTSD symptoms and depression, in completers. From baseline to posttreatment, there were statistically significant improvements in PTSD and depression. Treatment gains were maintained at 3 month follow-up. Preliminary results suggest the feasibility of implementing a manualized cognitive restructuring program to treat PTSD in adolescents. Completers rated themselves as improved and satisfied at posttreatment and 3-month follow-up. Feedback from referring clinicians also indicated high satisfaction.

  • The Evolution of Cognitive Behavior Therapy
    1 The Evolution of Cognitive Behavior Therapy The Rise of Psychological Acceptance and Mindfulness JAMES D. HERBERT AND EVAN M. FORMAN So it is too that in the eyes of the world it is dangerous to venture. And why? Because one may lose. But not to venture is shrewd. And yet, by not venturing, it is so dreadfully easy to lose that which it would be diffi cult to lose in even the most venturesome venture, and in any case never so easily, so completely as if it were nothing . one’s self. —Kierkegaard, Th e Sickness Unto Death (1849) Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) has now become the dominant force in psychotherapy in much of the world, including North America, the United Kingdom, much of Europe, and increasingly throughout Asia and Latin America. Th e rise of CBT is due to the confl uence of several factors, primary among which is the increased focus on evidence-based practice and associated calls for accountability in the delivery of behavioral health services (Baker, McFall, & Shoham, 2009). Th roughout its history, CBT has been committed to a scientifi c perspective to the study of psychopathology and its treatment. Hundreds of studies have evaluated various cognitive behavioral theories of psychopathol- ogy, and hundreds more have assessed the effi cacy of CBT interventions. Th is scientifi c literature has placed CBT in a unique position to dominate the fi eld of psychotherapy. Th is extraordinary growth immediately raises the question: What exactly is CBT? Does the term refer to a specifi c model of psychopathology or psychotherapy? Or perhaps to a domain of treatment, either in terms of targeted processes or pathologies? In fact, the term CBT has become so broad as to defy clear defi nition.

Abstract: Trait-based theories of personality explain behavior across situations based on a set of broad personality attributes or dimensions. In contrast, recent social-cognitive theories of personality emphasize the importance of context and take a combined nomothetic/idiographic approach to personality. The social-cognitive perspective on personality resembles cognitive-behavioral therapies, which explain behavior in particular situations based on interactions of specific cognitions, mood states, and stimulus conditions. This article considers how contemporary personality theory and research might be integrated into the study of the outcomes and processes associated with cognitive-behavioral therapies. We propose that applying the social-cognitive perspective on personality to the study of how cognitive-behavioral therapies work provides both validation of current theories and promising directions for additional research. We review the research literatures on cognitive theories of psychopathology and cognitive-behavioral treatments to examine how the topic of personality has been addressed in those literatures to date.
