Answer to Question 1

In order to determine whether or not treatment has been effective, some change needs to have occurred. Thus,
some measure to effectiveness is needed, as well as a source of the necessary information. It should be noted,
however, that sometimes people get well just with the passage of time. This must be considered when
considering the effectiveness of treatment did the treatment work, or would the person have improved without
any care? Establishing whether or not improvements have occurred can be assessed with information obtained
from the therapist, the client, family or friends of the client, test scores, and/or the measurement of over behavior.
Clearly, a number of these information sources are likely to be biased, either for treatment success or against it.
Ideally, an independent source would assess treatment success and the measures employed would be objective.
Obviously, this may or may not be possible.
