Abstract The aim of Study 1 was to determine whether preferences for psychotherapy theoretical orientations (PTOs) differ between LGB and heterosexual persons. Eighty-four LGB and 87 heterosexual participants read descriptions of three traditional PTOs (i.e., cognitive behavioral [CBT], humanistic [HT], and psychodynamic [PT]), then chose their most preferred PTO. PTO preferences did not differ between LGB and heterosexual participants. The aim of Study 2 was to determine whether LGB persons prefer an LGB affirmative PTO (LGB-AT) to traditional PTOs. Eighty-two LGB participants read descriptions, then chose their preferred PTO among CBT, HT, PT, and LGB-AT. They preferred CBT to LGB-AT.

LGB个人对心理治疗理论取向的偏爱：两项研究的结果

摘要研究1的目的是确定LGB和异性恋者对心理治疗理论取向（PTO）的偏好是否不同。84名LGB和87名异性恋参与者阅读了三种传统PTO（即认知行为[CBT]，人文[HT]和心理动力[PT]）的描述，然后选择了他们最喜欢的PTO。LGB和异性恋参与者之间的PTO偏好没有差异。研究2的目的是确定LGB人是否比传统PTO更喜欢LGB肯定性PTO（LGB-AT）。八十二名LGB参与者阅读了说明，然后在CBT，HT，PT和LGB-AT中选择了他们偏爱的PTO。他们更喜欢CBT而不是LGB-AT。
