Abstract

Abstract This paper evaluates the efficacy of treatment of 119 clients who sought help for CSBD (Compulsive Sexual Behavior Disorder). Using CORE OM and a tailor made supplement for CSBD, clients were evaluated at the beginning of a psycho-educational groupwork program and then again at three-month follow-up. 36 clients were evaluated a second time six-months later. The study identified, through CORE OM, that 85% of the sample were experiencing ‘clinical distress’ and 67% were at risk on intake. At three-month follow-up, there was ‘significant’ or ‘reliable’ improvement for 58% on clinical distress and 30% on risk. Compulsive sexual behaviors reduced for 97% of the sample group and 87% experienced a reduction in intrusive thoughts and feelings. However, for approximately 30% of clients, this reduction in problem symptoms was accompanied by negligible change in clinical distress and a worsening for some. A discussion is provided on why this may be and the implications of this research for treatment providers.

心理教育小组工作治疗强迫性性行为障碍(CSBD)的有效性:在3个月和6个月随访时使用CORE OM和补充的临床结果

摘要本文评估了119名因强迫性行为障碍寻求帮助的患者的治疗效果。使用CORE OM和为CSBD量身定制的补充，在心理教育小组工作计划开始时对客户进行评估，然后在三个月的随访中再次进行评估。36名客户在6个月后接受了第二次评估。该研究通过CORE OM确定，85%的样本正在经历“临床痛苦”，67%的样本在摄入时有风险。在三个月的随访中，58%的患者的临床痛苦和30%的患者的风险得到了“显著”或“可靠”的改善。97%的样本组强迫性行为减少，87%的样本组侵入性思维和感受减少。然而，对于大约30%的客户来说，问题症状的减少伴随着临床痛苦的微不足道的变化，一些客户的病情恶化。讨论了为什么会发生这种情况，以及这项研究对治疗提供者的影响。

期刊介绍： Now being understood and treated as a significant and widespread disorder, sexual addiction and compulsivity is an enormously complex problem that requires a multidisciplinary approach from psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, family therapists, pastoral counselors, and law enforcement personnel. The first and only journal devoted to topics pertaining to this growing illness, Sexual Addiction & Compulsivity: The Journal of Treatment and Prevention is a quarterly, peer-reviewed journal that provides a forum for research and clinical practice. As the source for information in this expanding new field, this journal will give practicing clinicians useful and innovative strategies for intervention and treatment from the necessary multidisciplinary perspective.
