Multiple criteria of treatment outcome (original) (raw)

Journal of Psychiatric Research, 1971

Abstract

ABSTRACT The interrelations of a variety of outcome measures are reported for a series of 65 consecutive admissions to a milieu therapy inpatient psychiatric unit. Correlations between various outcome variables were found to be suprisingly low, except when the variables were derived from the same time and the same evaluator-patient relationship. Findings were interpreted as reflecting the fact that no single criterion of ‘outcome’ is sufficient, and that a more differentiated view of the impact of treatments must be considered.
