Some Thoughts for Improvement

edit

Hello! I think the article as of right now is great, it's very concise and accessible. I only have a few minor suggestions that could be helpful. First, in the introduction of the entry, it might be helpful to clarify what "stuck points" are, either by hyperlinking it to a definition or stating it in the sentence itself. I know you do define stuck points further down in the article, but it might flow better for readers if it's defined early on. However, this is definitely more of a stylistic suggestion. Second, I can see why you chose to use the word education when describing the explanation of symptoms as the first step of CPT, but maybe using the wording "psychoeducation" and keeping the definition you have already would help integration of mental health and everyday life. Third, I would suggest making a separate section for the structure subheadings that are currently under the Four Essential Parts section. Also it could be helpful to add the exclusion criteria for CPT group therapy in the group therapy structure subheading. I hope this was helpful!

History

edit

I came to this page looking for some of the history of development and research on CPT. I did a quick Google search, and the only thing I found in two minutes or so was an "about us" page by some CPT researchers where they claim some "firsts". Given that these are some of the same researchers cited in the article already, that seemed pretty believable. There are probably better citations for this info out there, and much more history should probably be added.

My understanding (based on a This American Life podcast I heard on it) is that CPT is backed by some solid research, but right now none of that is really mentioned. The citations include a bunch of RCT on it; I'm guessing that there are review papers or treatment recommendations that mention the research support. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TChapProctor (talkcontribs) 22:08, 27 August 2019 (UTC)Reply

manualized = described in a manual??

edit

I am confused by the word "manualized" in the first sentence. Does that mean the process is described in a manual, e.g. a printed book, or does it mean that it is "hands on" or something else? Perhaps this can be glossed, wikilinked, or otherwise clarified. Thanks! --Lbeaumont (talk) 20:07, 28 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
