Changes in patient- and therapist-rated process items, and patient-rated symptom severity assessed over a maximum of 30 sessions of psychodynamic or cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy were compared in an outpatient mental-health clinic. Patients' ratings in psychodynamic psychotherapy on two of the process items were superior to ratings by patients in cognitive-behavioral therapy, and interactions with time were discovered for an interpersonal item. Comparisons between patients who reported their initial symptom severities as most severe and those with less severe symptoms also were made, with results indicating differential effects of treatment according to perceptions of symptom severity. Interactions between length of stay in treatment and number of sessions also were investigated. Findings indicated that patients benefit from psychotherapy over time and support the usefulness of a contextual model for psychotherapy funding.

Background: Virtual patients (VPs) are computer screen-based simulations of patient-clinician encounters. VP use is limited by cost and low scalability.
Objective: Show proof-of-concept that VPs powered by large language models (LLMs) generate authentic dialogs, accurate representations of patient preferences, and personalized feedback on clinical performance; and explore LLMs for rating dialog and feedback quality.

In this PRISMA-compliant systematic review based on a pre-registered protocol ( https://osf.io/egp7d ), we searched MEDLINE, PsycINFO, ERIC, Scopus and Web of Science databases until 3rd December 2023, to identify empirical studies comparing emotional processing in individuals meeting DSM (version III to 5-TR) or ICD (version 9 or 10) criteria for Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and in a non-psychiatric control group.
