“…The finding of no relationship be tween being poor and having poor atten dance rates is generally supported by the study of Meyer et a/ 14 but not sup ported by the work of Hollingshead and Redlich,8 Imber et a/, 9 Gibby et a/,6 Rubenstein and Lorr, 15 or Cole. 4 Since none of these studies reported their data in the same manner as the present study, it is difficult to know if different trends might be canceling one another out.…”

Previous studies have suggested that white people (particularly white authority figures) may have a deleterious impact on black people. This study set out to see if white therapists have a deleterious effect on black therapy patients, and concludes that there is an interactional effect among race, sex and medical‐assistance status of patients. Several explanations are offered to account for the data.

“…In clinical psychological science, the treatment compliance literature employs the term acceptance to describe the extent to which a mental health patient is willing to comply with medical, psychiatric, or psychological interventions (e.g., Baile & Engel, 1978;Demyttenaere, 1997;Hunter, 1942;Imber et al, 1956;Scheel et al, 2004). Other uses of the term vary broadly, from specific disciplines, such as design acceptance (e.g., Madni, 1988), job acceptance (Marozas & May, 1980), and technology acceptance (e.g., Colvin & Goh, 2005), to broader scientific issues relevant to all disciplines such as the "acceptance" of theories (e.g., Chow, 1992), models (e.g., Lynn & Fite, 1998), techniques (e.g., Hudson et al, 1998), and measures (e.g., Dahlstrom, 1992).…”

Recognition of the value of acceptance of the self, others, and the flux of human experience, has philosophical and religious roots that date back thousands of years. The past two decades have witnessed a swell of interest in acceptance, as evidenced by an increase in acceptance-based therapeutic interventions, and a growing appreciation of the paradoxical nature of acceptance and personal change and the role of experiential avoidance in psychopathology. In this article we review historical and contemporary descriptions and definitions of acceptance, measures of acceptance, the relation between acceptance and change, and the role of acceptance in psychopathology and psychotherapy. Our central objective is to delineate a rich conceptual scheme that encompasses the diverse ways in which acceptance has been explicated in classical and contemporary writings, and to highlight the need for further validation of this useful and popular construct.

“…The need for clinicians can be underestimated and administrative structure is negatively affected when clients fail to attend their appointments (Klein et al, 2003). Over time, this may lead to a deficit in service providers relative to the needs of the population (Baekland & Lundwall, 1975;Imber, Frank, Gliedman, Nash, & Stone, 1956). Client nonattendance may also lead to increased clinician job dissatisfaction, which may lead to greater clinician turnover rates (Pekarik, 1983).…”

CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION CHAPTER 2. LITERATURE REVIEW Efficacy of Psychotherapy CHAPTER 2 LITERATURE REVIEW The number of individuals living with or at risk for developing a mental illness is staggering. Approximately one out of every four individuals experiences mental illness in a given year (Clement et al., 2015). Of those, approximately half are diagnosed with two or more disorders. In a recent study conducted by The World Health Organization (WHO), mental illness and suicide accounted for over fifteen percent of the years of life lost to mortality and to time lost to ill health in the United States. This is more than the disease burden caused by all cancers combined (WHO, 2004). In line with this, Demyttenaere and colleagues (2004) studied the prevalence, severity and treatment of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition (DSM-IV) mental disorders in 14 countries (6 less developed, 8 developed) in the WHO's World Mental Health (WMH) Survey Initiative. Researchers conducted face-to-face household surveys of 60,463 community adults from 2001 to 2003 in 14 countries in the Americas, Europe, Middle East, Africa and Asia. Within the United States, of the individuals surveyed, 18.2% met criteria for anxiety disorders, 9.6% mood disorders, 6.8 impulse control disorders, 3.8% for substance use and 26.4 for any disorder. Of those who met criteria, 52.3% of those with an illness categorized as serious received health care treatment, 34.1% with moderate categorization received treatment and 22.5% with a mild disorder received treatment. Serious cases included serious lethal suicide attempts within the past 12 months, work limitations due to mental illness or substance disorders, symptoms of psychosis, bipolar disorders, substance dependence that impacted daily functioning, serious repeated violence due to problems with impulse control, and mental illness that resulted in 30 or more days out of life roles (Demyttenaere, Bruffaerts,
