I tend to think of outcome assessment in very broad terms so I'm hoping that the Outcome Assessment Forum will expand to include discussion of issues related to psychotherapy research. With the advent of the videotape, there are a great number of researchers who are engaged in similar projects to the one you describe and I'm hoping that we can draw in people who can discuss this issue. For those reading these postings, I would encourage you to post. One of the advantages of this mode of communication is the access to a group of professionals to the discuss dilemnas and challenges of planning and implementing research projects or routine program evaluation.
