[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From the actual study:

“The largest randomised controlled trial conducted to date amongst adolescents receiving outpatient treatment for severe emotion dysregulation (i.e. suicidal behaviour, nonsuicidal self-injury, and deliberate self-harm) (see McCauley et al., 2018) found that those receiving DBT relative to supportive individual and group psychotherapy were significantly less likely to engage in suicidal behaviour and non-suicidal self-injury immediately post-treatment.”

This study was teaching DBT “based” skills and was not a comprehensive DBT program. It was also presented to subjects who were not necessarily emotionally dysregulated. And there was no family component which IME, is one of the most important aspects of DBT.

DBT is certainly not for everyone, but [b]I don’t think this study disproves it’s effectiveness[/b].[/quote]

I read the article, not the study.  What the article was saying is that the universal DBT-like school program was bad and harmful and should not be used.  Actual DBT for an individual or family was not a part of the study and is not something that schools do, as far as I know.  [/quote]
