• Acceptance and mindfulness-based therapy: new wave or old hat? (2008, background): “Support for the hypothesized mediators of change in CBT is weak (e.g., Burns & Spangler, 2001; Morgenstern & Longabaugh, 2000), particularly in areas that are causal and explanatory rather than descriptive (Beck & Perkins, 2001; Bieling & Kuyken, 2003).”
• Mediators and mechanisms of change in psychotherapy research. (2007, background): “F or p er so na l u se o nl y. therapeutic changes quite early in the course of treatment suggest that improvements can readily occur without changes in cognitions or in advance of implementing cognitive-change strategies in treatment (e.g., Burns & Spangler 2001, Tang & DeRubeis 1999).”
• Mechanisms of change in dialectical behavior therapy: theoretical and empirical observations. (2006, background): “…have been thoroughly evaluated in efficacy studies, there has been substantially less emphasis on the processes by which treatments produce change (Kazdin & Nock, 2003), with the notable exception of studies on cognitive therapy for depression (Burns & Spangler, 2001; Whisman, 1993, 1999).”
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Anxiety Disorders: Different Treatments, Similar Mechanisms? (2008, background): “Evaluating competing structural equation models, Burns and Spangler (2001) found no evidence of a mediational link between dysfunctional attitudes and changes in anxiety and depression among a sizable sample ( n = 521) of CBT-treated outpatients.”
• Acceptance and commitment therapy: model, processes and outcomes. (2006, background): “Support for the hypothesized mediators of change in CBT is weak (e.g., Burns & Spangler, 2001; Morgenstern & Longabaugh, 2000), particularly in areas that are causal and explanatory rather than descriptive (Beck & Perkins, 2001; Bieling & Kuyken, 2003).”
• Understanding how and why psychotherapy leads to change (2009, methodology): “Tests of mediation and evaluation of therapeutic changes quite early in the course of treatment suggest that improvements can readily occur without changes in cognitions or in advance of implementing cognitive change strategies in treatment (e.g., Burns & Spangler, 2001; Tang & DeRubeis, 1999).”
