TL;DR: In this article, the authors defined wisdom as expert knowledge in the fundamental pragmatics of life and evaluated clinicians' responses as higher on five criteria of wisdom: factual knowledge, procedural knowledge, life-span contextualism, value relativism and management of uncertainty.
Abstract: Wisdom can be defined as expert knowledge in the fundamental pragmatics of life. Examined here is whether clinical practice may facilitate access to and acquisition of such knowledge. Spontaneous think-aloud responses to 2 wisdom-related dilemmas from young (M = 32 years) and older (M = 70 years) clinicians were compared with responses obtained from other professionals. Raters judged clinicians' responses as higher on 5 criteria of wisdom: factual knowledge, procedural knowledge, life-span contextualism, value relativism, and management of uncertainty. Contrary to most studies of cognitive aging, young and older adults did not differ. Rather, each age-cohort group received highest ratings when responding to a life dilemma matched to their own life phase. Discussed is the application of a wisdom framework to assessing therapeutic treatment goals and therapist interventions as well as global changes in client's beliefs during therapy.

  • ...Our framework and methodology for investigating wisdom-related knowledge provide a different window on examining dimensions of knowledge that may underlie clinical intuition, therapist response patterns and interventions (Elliot et al,, 1987; Garfield & Bergin, 1986; Jones, & Pulos, 1993), and questions of values and life priorities associated with therapeutic change processes (Hollon & Beck, 1986; Kelly & Strupp, 1992)....

TL;DR: Research findings related to use of the Outcome Questionnaire-45 and Clinical Support Tools for this purpose are presented and the necessary characteristics of feedback systems that work to benefit client's well-being are identified.
Abstract: A serious problem in routine clinical practice is clinician optimism about the benefit clients derive from the therapy that they offer compared to measured benefits. The consequence of seeing the silver lining is a failure to identify cases that, in the end, leave treatment worse-off than when they started or are simply unaffected. It has become clear that some methods of measuring, monitoring, and providing feedback to clinicians about client mental health status over the course of routine care improves treatment outcomes for clients at risk of treatment failure (Shimokawa, Lambert, & Smart, 2010) and thus is a remedy for therapist optimism by identifying cases at risk for poor outcomes. The current article presents research findings related to use of the Outcome Questionnaire-45 and Clinical Support Tools for this purpose. The necessary characteristics of feedback systems that work to benefit client's well-being are identified. In addition, suggestions for future research and use in routine care are presented.
