Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Working Alliance Inventory

  The therapeutic alliance is an important concept that expresses the cooperation and relationship between the therapist and the patient. This alliance includes such elements as trust, mutual understanding, openness and cooperation in the therapy process. This scale can be used to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the therapeutic relationship and to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions. The total score of the BR-WAI is calculated by adding up all of the items. Reverse items, 4, 8, 12, 16, are scored inversely: (5=1) (4=2) (2=4) (1=5). A higher score represents a stronger alliance. A subscale score for Bonds is calculated by adding questions: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15. A subscale score for Tasks and Goals is calculated by adding questions: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16.
