Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials and Single-Case Designs on the Efficacy of Functional Analytic Psychotherapy (in press). Accepted in Clinical Psychology: Science and Practice
This meta-analysis quantitatively synthetized the efficacy of FAP in addressing various clinical outcomes, includingg 70 studies. Single-case designs showed significant improvements in interpersonal behaviors, while controlled group studies demonstrated efficacy in reducing depression and anxiety. The findings support FAP's efficacy in treating interpersonal issues and internalizing symptoms, though biases in the studies could affect these results.
Exploring the Relationship between Adherence to Therapy, Treatment Acceptability, and Clinical Outcomes in Adults with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: Results from the COMPAS Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial (2023). Published in Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics
This study explored the acceptability and adherence to a DBT intervention for adults with ADHD. Participants rated therapy as moderately effective, attended most sessions, and used skills regularly. Those receiving DBT and methyplphenidate rated their health and medication effectiveness highe. Better adherence to therapy was associated with improved ADHD symptoms. Our findings emphasize the importance of addressing treatment adherence to enhance outcomes in adult ADHD patients.
Formulation-Based Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy Compared to an Active Control and a Waitlist in Adult Inmates with ADHD: Study Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Tria (in press). Accepted in Trials.
This article outlines a trial protocol to assess the efficacy of a CBT program for adult inmates with ADHD, a population at higher risk for antisocial behavior. The study employs a RCT design with various assessments, including clinical and criminological measures. The expectation is that addressing ADHD-specific needs will not only improve symptoms but also reduce recidivism rates. However, challenges inherent in the prison setting and follow-up after release may limit the study's design.
