Abstract

Kazdin and Blase (2011) propose that traditional models of delivering therapy require more resources than are available to address the scope of mental illness. We argue that finding new platforms and avenues for our existing treatments is a good start but that it is not enough. We contend that the field also needs to develop formal strategies to reorganize its increasing abundance of knowledge to address the scarcity of resources for its application. If we can better utilize our existing knowledge, treatment delivery and service resource allocation can become more efficient and effective. If the field continues with its almost singular emphasis on knowledge proliferation (e.g., developing new treatments), as opposed to knowledge management (e.g., developing new ways to design, apply, and organize existing treatments), the problem outlined by Kazdin and Blase cannot be solved.

  • Therapists cannot be expected to learn each new treatment package supported by a randomized controlled trial, particularly when many EBPIs share core components and target similar psychological processes, making distinct training in complete treatment packages potentially redundant and unnecessary.

    “Therapists cannot be expected to learn each new treatment package supported by a randomized controlled trial, particularly when many EBPIs share core components and target similar psychological processes, making distinct training in complete treatment packages potentially redundant and unnecessary (Chorpita et al., 2011).”

  • Many evidence-based psychosocial interventions share core components and target analogous psychological processes.

    “Many evidence-based psychosocial interventions share core components and target analogous psychological processes, so having therapists learn each new full treatment protocol may be redundant and unnecessary (Chorpita et al., 2011;Villatte et al., 2016).”

    From Online Self-Help Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Module for College Students with Higher Gaming Disorder During COVID-19: A Pilot Study (2023) · cites this paper as Chorpita et al., 2011

    In “We Need Options Other than Treatment Manuals to Transfer Knowledge” (page unavailable), the paper describes common procedures across evidence-based treatments and says treatments can be grouped by shared processes or aims. It also argues for ways to guide therapists beyond individual manuals. It does not establish that these interventions target analogous psychological processes specifically; its examples of shared processes concern treatment structure and delivery. (LLM, conf=0.82)

  • Chorpita et al. argued that the fundamental challenge in behavior change science may be an overemphasis on knowledge proliferation at the cost of knowledge management and suggested focusing more on algorithms to curate knowledge.

    “Indeed, Chorpita et al. [20] have argued that the fundamental challenge in behavior change science may be an overemphasis on knowledge proliferation (i.e., the development of new treatments) at the cost of knowledge management (e.g., developing new ways to design, organize, and share existing resources) and thus suggest focusing more on algorithms to curate knowledge.”

  • The major limitations are intervention specification to support replication, which is ideal for all sciences and effective curation as already pointed out by others.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
