1. Loris, M., & Johnson, D. R. (2001, December). Case study: Client treatment preference and imaginal exposure in three cognitive behavioral PTSD treatment. Poster presented at the 17th annual meeting of the International Society for Traumatic Stress Studies, New Orleans, LA.

Language: English

Format: Conference

Abstract: This case discussion will examine the intervention of EMDR (Shapiro, 1989), Prolonged Exposure (Foa, Rothbaum, Riggs & Murdock, 1990), and the Counting Method (Ochberg, 1996) on three adult female patients with PTSD symptoms. A recent treatment outcome study of 40 female trauma victims (Johnson and Lubin, 2001 in press) comparing these three treatments finds that the efficacy of the three treatments is supported and that the element of imaginal exposure may be the critical therapeutic factor. The presentation of these three cases focuses on the issue of client’s treatment preference and client personality traits as factors which may interface with imaginal exposure in treatment efficacy.

Language: English

Format: Journal

Abstract:
A study is described comparing Prolonged Exposure, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, and the Counting Method with 51 multiply-traumatized women. Measures of PTSD were significantly reduced by all three methods, but differences among the methods were negligible. Because the Counting Method utilizes only imaginal exposure as a therapeutic element, support is given to the more parsimonious conclusion that imaginal exposure may be both the necessary and sufficient factor in therapeutic effect, countering a trend in the field toward more complex, multi-faceted treatment packages.

Language: English

Format: Dissertation/Thesis

Abstract:
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) was introduced (Shapiro, 1989) as a treatment for traumatic memories. The necessity of eye movements or another activating stimuli in the treatment of test anxiety and the effectiveness of EMDR as a treatment for test anxiety is the focus of the present study. This study screened subjects for adequate study skills and the presence of test anxiety, and randomly assigned 45 subjects to one of three conditions: EMDR, EMDR with no activating stimuli (EMDR/NS; eyes closed), and a no treatment control group. The results of this study suggest that EMDR and EMDR/NS were equally effective in treating test anxiety and more effective than the control group as measured by the Achievement Anxiety Test, the Emotionality scale of the Test Anxiety Inventory (TAI), the Subjective Units of Disturbance scale, and the Validity of Cognition scale. Test performance and the Worry Scale of the TAI were not significantly impacted by the treatment groups. The inability of EMDR to impact the worry scale or the test performance of subjects in this study draws into question the usefulness of EMDR as a treatment of test anxiety.

Abstract:
El vaginismo es una de las causas más frecuentes de matrimonio no consumado y fobia al coito. Es preciso diferenciar el vaginismo de la evitación fóbica del acto sexual y también de cualquier causa orgánica que pueda obstruir la entrada de la vagina. Por lo tanto es imprescindible el examen ginecológico de la paciente. A pesar del desarrollo y relativa proliferación de los tratamientos psicológicos para las disfunciones sexuales desde los trabajos pioneros de Masters y Johnson (1970), y a pesar del convencimiento de los psicólogos clínicos de la eficacia de estos tratamientos, la verdad es que existen pocos tratamientos empíricamente validados. En el caso de las mujeres el panorama no ha sido muy alentador, salvo el empleo de terapia hormonal en los trastornos del deseo, no es mucho lo que se ha avanzado.

Vaginismus is one of the most common causes of unconsummated marriage and sex phobia. We must distinguish vaginismus phobic avoidance of sexual intercourse and also any organic cause that may prevent the entrance of the vagina. Therefore it is essential to the gynecological examination of the patient. Despite the development and proliferation on psychological treatments for sexual dysfunction from the pioneering work of Masters and Johnson (1970), despite the belief of clinicians of the effectiveness of these treatments, the truth is that there are few treatments empirically validated. For women the situation has not been very encouraging, but the use of hormone therapy in disorders of desire, not much progress has been made.

Language: English

Format: Conference

Abstract:
Twenty-four participants from a local domestic violence center were selfselected into an individual therapy-plus-standard advocacy group (P/SA) or a standard advocacy (SA) group. The center’s advocacy staffed administered treatment for the SA group and the P/SA group. In addition to the SA treatment received by individuals in the P/SA group, there were also six licensed therapists who provided a manualized treatment incorporating CBT and EMDR. Symptoms of PTSD, depression, CSE, self-esteem, and coping skills were assessed.Additionally, saliva sample measurements were taken to examine the effect of treatment on the regulation of salivary cortisol. Results indicate that participants in the P/SA treatment condition experienced a significantly greater reduction in intrusive symptomatology and overall level of PTSD symptom severity, as well as a greater increase in CSE over time than those individuals in the SA condition. Moreover, changes in CSE were related to changes in psychological symptoms in individuals in the P/SA group from pretreatment to posttreatment and at follow-up.Almost no linear relationship between changes in CSE and other psychological variables in the SA group emerged.A minimal impact of treatment on coping skills was observed. There was a move towards a greater regulation of salivary cortisol at posttreatment in the P/SA group.

Abstract:
In 1995 the Division 12 Task Force on Promotion and Dissemination of Psychological Procedures published its report in this journal. A major focus of that report was increasing training in psychological interventions that have been supported in empirical research by making clinical psychologists and students more aware of these treatments and facilitating training opportunities. To provide the basis for a survey on the degree to which clinical programs and internships were currently providing training in empirically supported therapies, the task force constructed a list of examples of treatments meeting criteria for efficacy as established by the task force. Based on feedback that members of the profession found this list of interventions to be very useful in training and clinical work, while also recognizing its very incomplete basis, the Division 12 board charged the succeeding task force (Task Force on Psychological Interventions), appointed in succession by Presidents Martin Seligman and Gerald Koocher, with adding to this preliminary list on an annual basis. This is one purpose of the current report. In addition, we raise several issues about the use and limitations of empirically supported treatments as currently identified. In keeping with the practice established by the first task force, the members of the group who constructed the present report are diverse in theoretical orientation and work in a variety of settings -- psychology departments, medical schools, and private practice.
