Let's Face Facts: Common Factors Are More Potent Than Specific Therapy Ingredients (2006, background): “Although the evidence regarding adherence to treatment protocols and outcome is mixed, it appears that it is the structuring aspect of adherence rather than adherence to core theoretical ingredients that predicted outcome (Wampold, 2001).”

Incorporating trauma-informed care into evidence-based sex offender treatment (2014, background): “In fact, it is clear in the general psychotherapy research literature that the therapeutic alliance and a client’s experience of the counselling relationship account for significantly more variance in outcomes than theoretical framework or specific counselling techniques (Ahn & Wampold, 2001; Duncan”
Contemporary Review of Group-Oriented Contingencies for Disruptive Behavior (2004, background): “However, another plausible explanation for these ambiguous findings could be based on the generalization of the “common factors” explanation for the effectiveness of interventions (Wampold, 2001).”

(2003, background): “…regarding the use of practice guidelines and manuals (see Kratochwill & Stoiber, 2000a, for an overview and further discussion), especially in light of the argument that the variance associated with effective treatments resides in the therapist and not the treatment manual (Wampold, 2001).”
Guided Internet‐based vs. face‐to‐face cognitive behavior therapy for psychiatric and somatic disorders: a systematic review and meta‐analysis (2014, background): “In terms of theories about change in psychotherapeutic interventions, the results suggest that the role of a face-to-face therapist may not be as crucial as suggested in the literature (38) to generate large treatment effects.”
