  abstract  = {Objective: Therapist competence is considered essential for the success of psychotherapy. Feedback is an intervention which has the potential to improve therapist competence. The present study investigated whether competence feedback leads to an improvement of therapist competence and patient outcome. Method: Sixty-seven master-level clinical trainees were randomly assigned to either a competence feedback group (CFG) or a control group (CG). Patients with a diagnosis of major depression (N = 114) were randomly assigned to CFG or CG. Treatment included 20 individual sessions of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). In CFG, therapists received, parallel to the treatment, five competence feedbacks, based on videotaped therapy sessions. Independent raters assessed therapist competence with the Cognitive Therapy Scale (CTS) and provided the competence feedback. Patient outcome was evaluated with the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) and therapeutic alliance (Helping Alliance Questionnaire [HAQ]) from both therapist's (HAQ-T) and patient's (HAQ-P) perspective were evaluated after each of the 20 sessions. Results: (a) Therapist competence (CTS) increased significantly more for CFG than CG. (b) Depression (BDI-II) decreased significantly across sessions for both groups, but without evidence for a group-differential benefit for the CFG. (c) Therapeutic alliance (HAQ-T/P) increased significantly across sessions for both groups from both perspectives, but without group differences. (d) There is a positive effect of BDI-II on CTS at the beginning and a negative effect of CTS on BDI-II at the end of therapy. Conclusion: Competence feedback improves therapists' independently rated competence, but there is no evidence that competence feedback in CBT leads to better outcome. What is the public health significance of this article? This study suggests the substantial value of systematic competence feedback for improving therapist competence in the psychotherapy of depression. No significant effect of competence feedback on the reduction of reported depressive symptoms was found.},

  abstract  = {Ziel der Studie Die vorliegende Untersuchung beinhaltete die explorative Erfassung potenzieller Indikatoren der Ergebnisqualit{\"a}t der kardiologischen Rehabilitation (CR) f{\"u}r Patienten unter 65 Jahren. Methoden In einer 4-stufigen webbasierten Delphi-Befragung (04-07/2016) von in der CR t{\"a}tigen {\"A}rzten[2] , Psychologen und Sport-/Physiotherapeuten wurden Parameter der k{\"o}rperlichen Leistungsf{\"a}higkeit, der Sozialmedizin, der subjektiven Gesundheit und kardiovaskul{\"a}re Risikofaktoren hinsichtlich ihrer Eignung als Qualit{\"a}tsindikator bewertet. Ergebnisse Von 44 vorgegebenen wie auch von den Teilnehmern vorgeschlagenen Parametern wurden 21 Parameter (48\%), die H{\"a}lfte davon psychosoziale Faktoren, als potenzielle Qualit{\"a}tsindikatoren ausgew{\"a}hlt, wobei lediglich f{\"u}r das Rauchverhalten, den Blutdruck, das LDL-Cholesterin und die max. Belastbarkeit im Belastungs-EKG ein Konsens (Zustimmung>75\% der Befragten) erzielt wurde. Schlussfolgerung Die Wahl der Qualit{\"a}tsindikatoren durch die Experten erfolgte mehrheitlich mit nur geringer Einigkeit. Eine klinische und wissenschaftliche Evaluierung der gew{\"a}hlten Parameter ist daher zwingend erforderlich.},
