🔥🔥🔥: Tim‘s types of #psychotherapy research papers! #PsychSky #AcademicSky #PsychSciSky

Tim Kaiser @tkaiser.science

The image is a humorous illustration titled “Types of Psychotherapy Research Papers.” It features a 3x3 grid of nine panels, each describing a stereotypical type of psychotherapy research paper with accompanying simplified visuals of mock text and figures. The captions in each panel are as follows:
1. Top left: “Oh my gosh, everything works equally well, please stop yelling.”
(Mock text with a blank rectangle in the middle.)
2. Top center: “We made a simple, 243-component treatment manual, but these pesky therapists won’t do it how we tell them.”
(Mock text and various line diagrams.)
3. Top right: “Oh my gosh, everything works equally poorly, and now I’m gonna yell about it.”
(Mock text filling the page.)
4. Middle left: “Ten white, middle-class adults who got a full course of gold-standard therapy felt better than ten white, middle-class adults who we ignored for 6 months.”
(Mock text with sparse lines in places.)
5. Middle center: “Trial of an established treatment, but with brain pictures, so now it’s real!”
(Mock text with a brain scan icon.)
6. Middle right: “We didn’t ask what these people want to change about their lives, but PHQ scores dropped 3 points, so treatment definitely worked.”
(Mock text and a bar graph.)
7. Bottom left: “Our therapy works! For the low cost of $10,000, 200 training hours, & your first-born child, you too can be a certified provider.”
(Mock text with a lot of empty space.)
8. Bottom center: “We made up a totally new & very unique therapy, and it is not at all a minor variation of stuff that already exists.”
(Mock text resembling a dense manuscript.)
9. Bottom right: “That’s great and all, but none of it matters if most people can’t access care.”
(Mock text with blank rectangles, possibly representing figures.)

This cartoon satirizes common themes and issues in psychotherapy research, such as accessibility, replicability, overcomplicated methods, and narrow study populations.

Psychodynamic #therapy equaled CBT in a new, large trial of major #depression, and brought greater remission and well-being: Both given as 2 sessions per week over 8 weeks #psychotherapy #psychiatry #psychoanalysis pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3…

The D*Phase-study: Comparing short-term psychodynamic psychotherapy and cognitive behavioural therapy for major depressive disorder in a randomised controlled non-inferiority trial - PubMed

The findings support SPSP as a viable treatment option for MDD, expanding the available choices for patients and broadening treatment options.

In psychotherapy, treatment expectations matter. But even more powerful? ➡️ How they change over time. Our new paper shows that updating expectations during psychotherapy for MDD predicts depression outcomes. 🔗 www.tandfonline.com/eprin…. #depression #psychotherapy #beliefupdating
