Abstract
This pilot study examined the relationship between interpersonal schemas (as measured by the Interpersonal Schema Questionnaire) and the therapeutic alliance (as measured early in treatment by a patient self-report version of the Working Alliance Inventory) in short-term cognitive therapy. Twenty-six (15 men, 11 women) patients participated in this study. Findings revealed that the complementarity of expected responses in submissive situations was positively associated with therapeutic alliance, whereas the complementarity of expected responses in dominant situations and the desirability of these responses were negatively related to therapeutic alliance.
