“…In previous studies, independent raters evaluated the process variables reliably and validly based on the middle third of the therapy sessions. This procedure provides a cost-effective alternative to considering entire sessions (Weck, Bohn, Ginzburg, & Stangier, 2011;Weck, Grikscheit, Höfling, & Stangier, 2014). Therefore, only the CTS and HAQ from the middle third of the 195 videotaped therapy sessions were considered.…”
