Abstract:
As the empirically supported treatment (EST) effort has expanded, there are efforts to make the
study of ESTs a more integral part of training programs. In its present form, the EST list provides
a poor model of how to evaluate treatment and scientific issues related to our field. This article
offers several suggestions regarding how to establish a more relevant scientific agenda for the
committee’swork if the study of ESTs is to usefully influence training programs. Recommendations
are made to encourage programs and the CSP to study mechanisms of change, important
contextual variables for therapy delivery, the distinction between statistical significance and
clinical meaningfulness, dissemination, cost-effectiveness, and iatrogenic effects. It is argued
that any program that created a curriculum educating students to thoughtfully address these
issues when evaluating therapies would be producing sound clinical scientists regardless of the
quality of the EST list itself.
