EVALUATION: LIMITATIONS OF SIT
Time-consuming & needs high motivation
- SIT takes a lot of time, effort, money and motivation. But Meichenbaum has shown the effectiveness of brief periods of therapy, e.g. victims of sexual assault/preparing patients for surgery
Unnecessarily complex
- Effectiveness may be due to some elemnts of the training rather than all of it, meaning that the range of activities could be reduced without losing much of the effectiveness. E.g. it may be as effective to just learn to talk more postively and relax more
