TL;DR: Generally beneficial effects of psychotherapy, greater change in long-term than in short-term therapy, and the validity of the Rorschach for measuring these effects and changes are demonstrated.
Abstract: Over a period of several years, repeat Korschach testing was done with two groups of patients receiving outpatient psychotherapy, a long-term group (n = 88) engaged in intensive, dynamically oriented psychotherapy and a short-term group (n = 88) involved in behavioral or gestalt therapy. Rorschach protocols were obtained at the beginning of the treatment and on three subsequent occasions, 1 year, 21/2 years, and 4 years later, when most of the long-term and all of the short-term patients had completed their therapy. The findings demonstrate generally beneficial effects of psychotherapy, greater change in long-term than in short-term therapy, and the validity of the Rorschach for measuring these effects and changes.

TL;DR: Adaptive treatment planning is a dynamic process that is dependent on valid, systematic assessments and the dosage and phase models provide theoretical bases for the development of such "patient-focused" information.
Abstract: Adaptive treatment planning is a dynamic process that is dependent on valid, systematic assessments. The dosage and phase models provide theoretical bases for the development of such "patient-focused" information. Given an underlying mathematical regularity to the recovery process, growth modeling techniques can be used to determine an expected treatment response for every patient. By mapping the patient's actual status against such an expected change trajectory, it is possible to address the most clinically relevant question, "Is this treatment working?"

...Studies have invariably demonstrated extensive overlap of outcome score distributions of treatment and control group (Chassan, 1967; Howard, Krause, & Vessey, 1994) and reliable variation in outcomes among patients within assigned conditions (Lambert & Bergin, 1994; Lyons & Howard, 1991)....
