Given the slightly less than rigorous reputation psychology has lately, what are the chances the initial measurements that determined CBT were woo to begin with? There are certainly enough incentives on the part of the practitioners to give the benefit of the doubt to the efficacy of expensive new techniques.
- DanBC 10y agoCBT is much cheaper than other forms of psychotherapy. It's a short form therapy, that takes between 8 to 14 sessions, of about an hour each, as oppose to the sometimes years long therapy of other systems. EDIT: Its cheapness is one reason it's been pushed so heavily in the UK.
