Abstract
Recorded first interviews of nine cases were independently ranked by each author as to the amount of "therapy readiness" demonstrated. Rank-order correlation between the two rankings was .92. This strongly suggests that the "attitudinal set of clients, as demonstrated early in the therapy relationship, can be reliably observed by trained people having a similar concept of 'therapy readiness.' " Therefore "therapy readiness" can serve as a variable in therapy research. Areas for investigation are indicated. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)Keywords
