PM
Because PM measures come with repeated administrations, PM assessments require greater measures of this.
What is standardization?
True/False: Most treatment outcomes are positive, but not specific.
What is true?
Maybe the biggest reason for using PMOA, these types of therapies utilize client input to adjust therapeutic intervention for the needs of the client.
What are feedback-enhanced therapies (FETs)?
Because PMOA results in extra data about a client, there are major ethical concerns around this type of client right.
What is confidentiality?
If I'm comparing the results of a measurement I have to the results of a non-clinical sample, I'm engaging in this type of comparison.
What is a norm-referenced/normative comparison?
What is a persistence table?
Why would I want to utilize a mixed-methods approach to collecting OA data?
PMOA might be some extra work, but if you use them, it may aid you in this type of clinical planning.
What is treatment planning?
Because PMOA measures are ongoing, it's important maintain this type of ethical measure with your counseling clients, and understand it could be withdrawn at any time.
What is informed consent?
According to your client's current PMOA data, your client is improving, as evidenced by a decrease in negative cognitions. What fallacy could you run into by assuming your this improvement is from your intervention?
What is correlation does not imply causation?
Many types of reports can count for PM (or OA) data collection, but only these types of reports are found to be the most reliable and least unbiased.
What is ratings by others?
True/False: OA data can be used as the final determination of treatment success.
What is false?
Even though PMOA comes with a lot of pros, there are some cons, like this limitation in terms of clinician competency.
What is requires high competency from a clinician?
If you failed to inform a client afterwards about the use of a measurement and their results, you would fail to complete this ethical responsibility.
What is debriefing?
If I group multiple scores together to reduce random error, what type of interpretation am I utilizing?
If a client has a decrease in negative scores, what might this imply?
The client is improving, and termination may be possible, but is not guaranteed.
When using a clinical rating in collecting OA data, it's very easy for researchers to interpret data as supporting their initial theory, which is an example of this type of error.
What is hypothesis confirmation bias?
Some cons of PMOA can be avoided through a good therapeutic alliance, like this client concern.
What is client avoidance?
While not illegal, using PMOA measures for this type of clinical decision would be considered highly unethical and harmful to a client.
What are final decisions regarding treatment?
Very often, client avoidance can lead to this phenomenon where suppression of unwanted thoughts causes an increase in those unwanted thoughts, thereby affecting their PMOA data as well.
What is the rebound effect?
Your client has been steadily improving over time, and you've collected a time series of data that shows a downward trend in negative cognitions. Suddenly, in your next session their negative cognitions have sky rocketed again, causing an uptick on your timer series graph. What type of event has likely occurred?
What is a critical incident?
When evaluating the effectiveness of a treatment program, researchers may utilize this type of design, which compares two time periods: baseline and intervention.
What is AB Design?
Very often, PMOA is used to avoid treatment failure caused by clients dropping out prematurely, which is sometimes also known as this term.
What is Attrition?
When considering client confidentiality when collecting/storing PMOA data, it's important to consider these two aspects.
What are:
- Addressing who has access to the data?
- How is the data shared?
While PMOA data is useful, many practitioners debate how wide it can be used due to its limitation to an "alert" function, which means it struggles to provide this type of explanation.
What is context/the "why" behind a client improving or deteriorating over time?
