A dismantling study of DBT by Linehan and colleagues (2006) provided evidence that DBT was associated with better outcomes than community experts' treatments. The text authors conclude that this study provides evidence that:
a. common factors are the likely source of influence on DBT outcomes.
b. factors specific to DBT are effective in reducing suicidal behavior.
c. expert therapy is expert therapy, and most established treatments produce equivalent outcomes.
d. DBT's complex mix of common and specific factors make their effects highly difficult to separate.
Question 2
A dismantling study of DBT (Linehan et al., 2006) showed that:
a. DBT had a differentially greater impact on key outcomes.
b. DBT was equivalent to community treatment by experts.
c. DBT had no unique effects on outcome.
d. common factors are most responsible for its effects.
