• Evaluating an alliance-focused treatment for personality disorders. (2005, background): “In their critical review of randomized clinical trial studies, Westen and Morrison (2001) found that the exclusion rates of patients who presented with multiple diagnoses typically ranged from 60% to 70%.”
• BEYOND "ESTs" Problematic Assumptions in the Pursuit of Evidence-Based Practice (2010, background): “…that there is a good deal of relapse and that a significant portion of the patients who were treated with the supposedly “empirically supported” treatment sought further therapy elsewhere after completing the treatment (see, e.g., Westen et al., 2004; Westen & Morrison, 2001; Shedler, 2010).”
• A Comparative Study on the Efficacy of a Positive Psychology Intervention and a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Clinical Depression (2017, methodology): “…positive intervention package used in this study shares some of the limitations and ceiling effects found in the entire field of depression therapies (Björgvinsson et al. 2014; Westen and Morrison 2001), which justifies the need for research on new treatments in depression (Stirman et al. 2010).”
• The empirical status of empirically supported psychotherapies: assumptions, findings, and reporting in controlled clinical trials. (2004, methodology): “Although the average patient improved substantially in active treatment conditions, the average patient also remained symptomatic (Westen & Morrison, 2001).”
• Motivation and Autonomy in Counseling, Psychotherapy, and Behavior Change: A Look at Theory and Practice 1ψ7 (2011, background): “Concern with motivation and autonomy has been heightened by concerns about selectivity (Westen & Morrison, 2001) and attrition in some CBT treatments.”
• Side effects in Internet-based interventions for Social Anxiety Disorder (2014, background): “In general, randomised controlled efficacy trials achieve better clinical outcomes, and therefore less negative effects, than studies in clinical routine (e.g.Westen and Morrison, 2001).”
• Transdiagnostic Approaches to the Prevention of Depression and Anxiety (2009, background): “…with these conditions (see Collins, Westra, Dozois, & Burns, 2004), coupled with the fact that treatment obviates merely half of the burden associated with these disorders (Cuijpers, 2005; Westen & Morrison, 2001), a focus on preventing their incidence is imperative (see Dozois & Dobson, 2004).”
• Beyond Money (2004, background): “Westen (2001) reported that treatments for panic disorders are effective and have lasting effects; treatments for depression and generalized anxiety have significant short-term effects, but these might not last over time.”
• Anxiety disorders in older adults: a comprehensive review (2010, neutral): “90, any EST)].([159]) Thus, as discussed by Ayers et al.”
