Some measures of goal attainment in focussed integrated active psychotherapy: a study of fifteen cases
A Ryle
The psychotherapeutic treatment of 15 patients is described. The goals were
defined in terms of target problems and target dilemmas, traps and snags,
and the outcome was assessed by rating these or with a symptom
questionnaire and a dyad repertory grid before and after treatment.
Patients who rated dilemmas as resolved showed appropriate changes in
construct correlations on the dyad grid.
