A common metric for determining implementation success is the measurement of clinician adherence to, and competence in, delivering a psychotherapy. The present study examined clinician and organizational factors as predictors of early adherence and competence among 78 clinicians delivering cognitive processing therapy (CPT), an evidence-based psychotherapy (EBP) for posttraumatic stress disorder, in a randomized controlled implementation trial. Results indicated that clinicians' willingness to adopt an EBP if required to do so was significantly associated with early adherence and competence in CPT delivery. Level of clinician education was significantly associated with early competence in delivering CPT. Organizational factors did not predict early adherence or competence. Implications of the findings are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
