Two-Year Randomized Controlled Trial and
Follow-up of Dialectical Behavior Therapy vs Therapy by Experts for
Suicidal Behaviors and Borderline Personality Disorder
Marsha M. Linehan, PhD at al.
Arch Gen Psychiatry. 2006;63:757-766
Conclusions:
Our findings replicate those of previous studies of DBT and suggest
that the effectiveness of DBT cannot reasonably be attributed to
general factors associated with expert psychotherapy. Dialectical
behavior therapy appears to be uniquely effective in reducing
suicide attempts.
