Description
Summary:The social cognition and object relations scale‐global rating method is a clinical rating system assessing 8 domains of self and interpersonal functioning. It can be applied to score numerous forms of narrative data. In this study, we investigate the SCORS‐G relationship to measures of alliance and readiness for psychotherapy with an adolescent inpatient sample. Seventy‐two psychiatrically hospitalized adolescents were consented and subsequently rated by their individual and group therapist using the SCORS‐G. The unit psychiatrist also completed an assessment of patients' readiness for inpatient psychotherapy. The patients completed a self‐report of their alliance with the inpatient treatment team as a whole. SCORS‐G ratings were positively correlated with assessments of readiness for inpatient psychotherapy and patient‐reported alliance. This study further demonstrates the clinical utility of the SCORS‐G with adolescents.
