Abstract
A 61-item scale was constructed of relatively explicit descriptions of behavior in which a psychotherapist might engage. The scale is largel y noninferential, is basically atheoretical but applicable to psychody namically oriented therapy, may be completed by either the therapist o r an independent rater with minimal training, and may be used to rate entire therapy sessions or specified segments of sessions. The scale s hows high interrater reliability and discriminant validity.
