Abstract
Comments on the article by C. S. Hyatt et al. (see record 2025-13493-001), which describes how therapists feel about treating antagonistic patients. The findings clearly reflect all the difficulties one can have with these cases. It is not surprising that many students felt they needed more supervision to address these problems. That might have made a difference. But what is even more necessary is conducting research into which methods work best. If experienced therapists find these cases problematic and may even avoid treating these patients, why should students have an easier time? In summary, teaching students how to deal with their most difficult cases needs to be guided by data. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved).
