Mediators and mechanisms of change in psychotherapy research. (2007, background): “Mechanisms of treatment are increasingly discussed, a likely precursor to more empirical work on the topic (e.g., Brent & Kolko 1998, Grawe 2004, Hofmann 2000, Kazdin 2006, Kazdin & Nock 2003, Weersing & Weisz 2002).”
The Future of Intervention Science: Process-Based Therapy (2018, positive): “In other words, knowledge about moderators and mediators provides evidence from which causal and functional accounts can begin to emerge (Kazdin, 2007; Kazdin & Nock, 2003). the centrality of processes of change has begun to change our views of what CBT encompasses and how it works.”
BEYOND "ESTs" Problematic Assumptions in the Pursuit of Evidence-Based Practice (2010, neutral): “…et al., 2006; Ehrenreich, Buzzella, & Barlow, 2007; Goldfried & Eubanks-Carter, 2004; Goldfried & Wolfe, 1996, 1998; Kazdin, 2002, 2007, 2008; Kazdin & Nock, 2003; Moses & Barlow, 2006; Pachankis, & Goldfried, 2007; Shapiro, 1995; Westen et al., 2004, 2005) have made similar or related…”
Parent Motivation to Participate in Treatment: Assessment and Prediction of Subsequent Participation (2006, background): “Given that change in parent motivation was not a significant predictor of number of sessions attended we were not able to conduct a formal test of barriers to treatment as a statistical mediator of the relation between parent motivation and treatment attendance (see Kazdin & Nock, 2003 ).”
Improving Acute Stress Responses (2013, background): “More broadly, research on psychological treatments has primarily focused on improving patient outcomes rather than identifying mechanisms of change (Kazdin, 2011; Kazdin & Nock, 2003).”
The role of self-statements as a mediator in treatment for youth with anxiety disorders. (2007, positive): “Nevertheless, several suggested requirements to support change mechanisms ( Kazdin & Nock, 2003 ) were not addressed in this study.”
Mechanisms of change in dialectical behavior therapy: theoretical and empirical observations. (2006, background): “Beyond functioning as mediators, researchers have suggested, proposed mechanisms of change also must be situated within and supported by a broader scientific knowledge base (Kazdin & Nock, 2003).”
Reenvisioning Clinical Science: Unifying the Discipline to Improve the Public Health (2014, positive): “First, understanding mechanisms can guide the enhancement and simplification of interventions (Kazdin & Nock, 2003).”
Efficacy of a Problem-Solving Therapy for Depression and Suicide Potential in Adolescents and Young Adults (2008, background): “Kazdin and Nock (2003) discussed the importance of mechanisms of therapeutic change in child and adolescent psychotherapy.”
What are the barriers, facilitators and interventions targeting help-seeking behaviours for common mental health problems in adolescents? A systematic review (2020, neutral): “The relevance of studying underlying mechanisms and practical requirements related to the functionality of interventions has been previously discussed [123], and most of the interventions included in this review did not refer to these processes.”
The Second Special Issue on Evidence-Based Psychosocial Treatments for Children and Adolescents: A 10-Year Update (2008, background): “Consistent with the widely quoted adage “nothing is as practical as a good theory,” Kazdin and Nock ( 2003 ) pointed out that “the study of mechanisms of treatment is probably the best short-term and long-term investment for improving clinical practice and patient care” (p.”
