| 總結: | Introduction: Therapy expectations contribute substantially to the outcome of
psychotherapy. In contrast, psychotherapy expectations are rarely addressed and
systematically optimised in studies on psychotherapy.
Materials and Methods: A total of 142 mostly healthy participants with critical attitudes
towards psychotherapy were randomised into two groups: (1) a control group that
watched a video with patients who gave information about their symptoms or (2) an
experimental group that watched an expectation-optimised video with the same patients
giving additional information about their mostly positive therapy outcomes. The primary
outcome was the Milwaukee Psychotherapy Expectation Questionnaire (MPEQ), which
was filled in before and after watching the video.
Results: Both groups showed a significant improvement of their process expectations
and attitudes towards psychotherapy after watching the video. Participants in the
experimental group changed their therapy outcome expectation while there was no
change in the control group [F(1,140) = 9.72, p = 0.002, ! 2 = 0.065].
Conclusion: A video intervention with patients presenting their positive therapy
experiences improves therapy expectations in persons with critical attitudes.
Expectation-optimised videos could be used for prevention programmes and when
starting therapy.
