“…In several surveys researchers have assessed the impact of Tarasoff on therapists' willingness to break confidentiality and warn probable victims, therapists' confidence in predicting dangerous behavior, and therapists' clinical management of dangerous clients (Givelber, Bowers, & Blitch, 1984; Jagim, Wittman, & Noll, 1978; Wise, 1978). A number of therapy techniques have been recommended for modifying assaultive behavior (Broderick, Friedman, & Carr, 1981; Foy, Eisler, & Pinkston, 1975; Novaco, 1975; Roth & Meisel, 1977). Tardiff (1974) conducted a pre- Tarasoff survey of Boston-area psychiatrists to determine what interventions they found effective in preventing violent episodes by their patients.…”

We assessed the techniques that psychotherapists use in the treatment and management of potentially dangerous clients. A nationwide sample of professional psychologists was surveyed in order to determine what they perceived to be important therapeutic interventions for use with dangerous outpatients. From these responses, a 46-item rating scale was developed. Another sample (n = 101) of practicing psychologists completed the scale by indicating the likelihood that they would use each of the 46 interventions. Data were analyzed with respect to nine rationally derived subscales. Indicators of therapist expertise were related to several of the subscales, but theoretical orientation of therapists generally was not. We discuss three areas of future research that will be necessary in developing an empirically based standard of care for dangerous clients.
