“…As such, our findings do not speak to potential differences by subscales or symptom clusters, as highlighted by a recent study showing stronger effects for self-relevant trauma beliefs on PTSD gains (Kumpula et al, 2016). However, testing all possible combinations of PTCI subscales and PSS-SR clusters across our four main models would greatly raise the risk of a Type I error.…”

“…All five studies found evidence that belief change significantly predicted subsequent PTSD symptom improvement in PE treatments. Three studies also convincingly demonstrated a unidirectional relationship, with belief change preceding symptom change more robustly than the reverse relationship (Cooper et al, in press; Øktedalen et al, 2015; Zalta et al, 2014), with the remaining studies suggesting a more equivocal relationship (Kumpula et al, 2016; McLean et al, 2015). Several of these studies also included important comparisons between PE and other treatments in terms of this relationship.…”

“…Another study also showed that PTCI change was uncorrelated with between-session habituation ( r =.01) and both were trend level predictors of PTSD symptom improvement, which the authors interpreted as evidence that cognitive change and between-session habituation might be separate processes or indicators of improvement (Nacasch et al, 2015). Five recent studies have examined the temporal relation between belief change and PTSD symptom change in exposure therapies for adults with PTSD (Cooper, Zoellner, Roy-Byrne, Mavissakalian & Feeny, in press; Kumpula et al, 2016; McLean, Su & Foa, 2015; Øktedalen, Hoffart & Formo-Langkaas, 2015; Zalta et al, 2014). These studies used various robust statistical methods (e.g., lagged mixed effects regression) to estimate the magnitude of association between belief change and PTSD improvement while accounting for missing data, controlling for the influence of prior symptom levels, and testing temporal sequence (i.e., is belief change a predictor or product of symptom change?).…”

“…The researchers assessed PTSD symptoms related to both HIV-and non-HIV-related traumas and found that PE was superior to waitlist for both. PE was also associated with better end-state functioning (i.e., minimal PTSD and depression symptoms) and greater reductions in negative trauma-related cognitions at posttreatment, which are theorized to maintain PTSD symptoms [40, 41] and have been found to mediate changes in PTSD in several studies [4245]. …”
