- Summary:
- [The author] describes the symptom-context method of gathering data as symptoms arise in vivo in the psychotherapy session. Transcripts are examined in light of each patient's symptom vs nonsymptom (control) segments, using controlled clinical ratings, scoring methods (both psychological and physiological), and background context. /// [The author] draws from several theory bases and presents new and updated empirical data. Using themes and techniques from the Core Conflictual Relationship Theme method . . . , Dr. Luborsky compares this methodology with the symptom-context method, improving the ability to identify those relationship patterns that are most prominent in the occurrence of symptoms in several different disorders. /// [This book] enables practitioners and researchers to reexamine some of the most important clinical material that patients present and to do so in creative ways that are adaptable to any theoretical or practice orientation.
