Resistances to learning behavior therapy.

Full Abstract

Resistance to learning about behavior therapy, due to role conflict, model conflict, and disparagement, remains high in the mental-health field despite growing interest in behavioral methods and mounting evidence of their efficacy. Effects of these resistances on training and factors that may mitigate their influence are discussed.
