Expectations, experiencing and change in psychotherapy.

The relationships of client prognostic expectations and of level of Experiencing in psychotherapy with three variables of therapeutic change were explored in a correlational study that used 26 volunteer Ss who were in treatment with experienced therapists. A positive relationship was found between prognostic expectation and perceived improvement and a negative relationship between Experiencing and perceived improvement. The data also suggested positive relationships between Experiencing and cognitive change and attitude and cognitive change, while they provided no evidence for a relation between expectations and cognitive change.
