Comparative Efficacy Between Self-Report and Clinician-Administered Assessments of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Symptoms Across Seven Studies

A meta-analysis of seven studies using self-report and clinician-administered assessments to evaluate the effectiveness of a cognitive processing therapy (CPT) intervention among 684 participants. A secondary moderation analysis was completed to investigate the effect of assessment type, type of comparison group, and Publication date with effect size reporting in seven studies evaluating the effectiveness of CPT for treating posttraumatic stress disorder. Results indicated no significant differences and modest effect sizes for assessment format (self-report vs. clinician administered) and Publication date. A medium effect size was detected for type of comparison group implemented within individual studies. Implications for counseling practice and future research are discussed.
