The current study, examined a sample of audiotaped sessions from Hyams, Cartwright, and Spratley's (1996) study of engagement in an alcohol treatment service in an attempt to see whether the therapists' effectiveness at engaging clients in treatment was related to client-therapist interaction in assessment interviews. It was hypothesized that there would be (1) more overall negative interpersonal behaviour (2) more negative interpersonal behaviour by the therapist and (3) more negative interpersonal complementarity in interviews where the client failed to engage. Structural Analysis of Social Behaviour was used to assess the interpersonal behaviour of clients and therapists in three case comparisons, each of which focused on an engage and a non-engage case provided by one o...

Research paper thumbnail of Interpreting the Inventory of Interpersonal Problems: Subscales based on an interpersonal theory model

In this paper items are extracted from the IIP to form a 40-item shortened version (the IIP-40) comprising eight subscales, each of ve items, which conform to the eight octant positions within Birtchnell' s interpersonal octagon: a version of interpersonal theory. The inter-item reliability of the subscale structure is found to be acceptable when tested against a sample of 150 preassessment for psychotherapy IIP completions within the Centre for the Study of Psychotherapy (CSP), University of Kent. The face validity is established through acceptable inter-rater reliability scores in an experiment using blind raters. Subscale scores are shown for patients within CSP and are found to be signi cantly different between genders in the octant positions of Upper Close and Neutral Distant. High scores in the octant position of Upper Distant is found to be a signi cant predictor of therapeutic drop-out. The results for gender and therapeutic engagement are consistent with other published work in the interpersonal theory eld.
