“…Examples of contributions to the knowledge base from accumulating clinical information are evident in private practice (e.g., Clement, 1999), clinics (e.g., Fonagy & Target, 1994), and research settings (e.g., Lambert, Hansen, & Finch, 2001;Lambert et al, 2003). Progress has been made in identifying measures that can be used in individual therapy, can be applied widely across clinical and service settings and clients, and can accumulate information that contributes to the knowledge base more generally (e.g., Barkham et al, 2001;Kordy, Hannöver, & Richard, 2001;Sperry, Brill, Howard, & Grissom, 1996). How unfortunate for patients and for our science to lose the opportunities afforded by systematic evaluation.…”
