“…For the current study, qualitative research methods in particular were used to capture findings that compliment and provide depth and additional meaning to those findings available through the quantitative scales. 40 The mixed methods approach to analysis provided critical information necessary to move the process-oriented topic of policy implementation forward. [40][41][42] Quantitative data were analyzed using SPSS version 15.0 to generate frequencies, including mode, mean, and standard deviation.…”

The current climate of increasing performance expectations and diminishing resources, along with innovations in evidence-based practices (EBPs), creates new dilemmas for substance abuse treatment providers, policymakers, funders, and the service delivery system. This paper describes findings from baseline interviews with representatives from 49 state substance abuse authorities (SSAs). Interviews assessed efforts aimed at facilitating EBP adoption in each state and the District of Columbia. Results suggested that SSAs are concentrating more effort on EBP implementation strategies such as education, training, and infrastructure development, and less effort on financial mechanisms, regulations, and accreditation. The majority of SSAs use EBPs as a criterion in their contracts with providers, and just over half reported that EBP use is tied to state funding. To date, Oregon remains the only state with legislation that mandates treatment expenditures for EBPs; North Carolina follows suit with legislation that requires EBP promotion within current resources.

“…In this regard, I felt confident that the themes were inclusive of data across the interviews. Data analysis and coding processes proceeded simultaneously with the data collection (Ambert, Adler, Adler, & Detzner, 1995), so that initial interview data were examined and analyzed as I arranged and conducted subsequent interviews.…”

“…Since the researchers are a part of the data obtaining and knowledge generation process in qualitative studies, their possible biases could confound variables (Ambert, Adler, Adler & Detzner, 1995). Reporting their potentially confounding characteristics is a way to prevent this: the authors were trained for both cognitive interpersonal therapy and ST, which are basically relational approaches.…”

This study aimed to qualitatively examine the perspectives of therapists using different theoretical orientations on rupture moments. The study features a qualitative research design. Six different therapy session segments were presented to the participants and questions were asked to gather their perspectives on the segments. The thematic analyses conducted on 20 therapists' evaluations on the 6 rupture segments of 5 patients were based on two categories: i) the causes of the rupture moments, ii) the recommendations for resolution. Findings revealed that therapists are more likely to report patients' negative contribution as the main cause of rupture moments. Participants attributed less importance to the negative contribution of the therapist or to the therapist-patient relationship in rupture moments, and therapists tended to suggest mostly technical resolutions to ruptures. This second-generation alliance research draws attention to relational aspects of the rupture resolution processes for a positive outcome. However, our findings yielded that there was a lack in therapists' evaluations in addressing the contribution of the therapists and/or therapist-patient relationship to rupture moments. This highlights the importance of supervision training to foster therapists' awareness of rupture moments and develop their skills for resolution in the context of the therapist-patient relationship.
