Evaluacija Racionalno emotivno bihejvioralne terapije
Contribution to assessment of effects of Rational emotive behaviour therapy

Summary/Abstract: Three main problems dealt with in this study are the following: 1. what effects attain REBT in 6 sessions in treating clients with various psychopathology?; 2. Does the level of training and experience of therapists play any role in REBT intervention outcomes?; 3. Does the sex of clients play any role in REBT intervention outcome? ANOVA showed that REBT was effective with most number of clients demonstrating statistically significant improvements on a third measurement comparing with the first one; also, very small number of clients responded negatively to the treatment, showing stagnation or intensifying of symptoms. Thus we conclude that REBT can be effective in treating clients with various psychopathologies. T-test also showed that more experienced therapists were statistically significantly more effective than less experienced in one out of four measures. The treatment was equally effective to clients of both sexes. This study was conducted in naturalistic conditions with certain flaws and limitations; future controlled evaluations are more than welcome.
