El Conocimiento y el Uso en la Práctica Clínica de los Tratamientos Psicológicos Basados en la Evidencia.

This paper aims to know the impact of evidence-based treatments (EBTs) on applied psychology, as well as the factors that could be related to this impact. The sample consisted of 242 psychologists trained in Spain, who were administered an ad hoc questionnaire consisting of questions that gathered information about certain sociodemographic variables and about the use or knowledge of EBTs for mental disorders in adults. The results indicate that, with the exception of cognitive-behavioral therapies, the impact of EBTs is limited, and the professional accreditation and the years of clinical experience may influence this impact. The findings of this study support the idea that the results of the research are not fully consolidated in applied areas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
