Abstract:
The present study assessed the effectiveness of the Cognitive Interview (CI) in a multiple-testing situation. One-hundred and eighty-two undergraduate psychology students viewed a short film clip depicting an automobile accident. Subsequently, the subjects were interviewed twice using either the CI or standard interviewing technique. In both instances, subjects who received the CI recalled more accurate information (m=32.30 at Time 1 and m=30.51 at Time 2) than subjects who received the standard interview (m=18.14 at Time 1 and m=18.38 at Time 2).

Abstract:
To stem the spread of infectious diseases, epidemiologists use contact tracing interviews to identify individuals who may need treatment or, if indicated, quarantine or isolation. Given the high stakes, the most exhaustive list of potentially infected contacts must be reported. However, standard contact tracing procedures may fail to extract the most complete report possible from sick individuals. One of the most reliable methods for maximizing recall is the Cognitive Interview (CI). The CI uses several techniques grounded in psychological theory and was expected to increase the number of cont

Abstract:
While cognitive therapy (CT) is one of the most well-validated and widely used treatments for patients with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), many individuals remain symptomatic at the end of treatment or drop out prematurely (Cuijpers, van Straten, Anderson, & van Oppen, 2008; Vittengl, Clark, Dunn, & Jarrett, 2007). Evidence suggests that certain types of therapist relational styles, such as one characterized by empathy and support, are facilitative of better therapeutic outcomes (Keijsers, Schaap, & Hoogduin, 1997) and motivational interviewing (MI; Miller & Rollnick, 2002) is a therapeutic

Abstract:
Motivational Interviewing (MI) has been shown to be an effective treatment for substance abuse and other lifestyle and/or behavioural problems. However, mechanisms of change remain a topic of speculation. It has been hypothesised that MI works by eliciting and resolving a client's ambivalence, thereby enhancing their motivation and commitment to change. Research has supported the theory that enhancing commitment is an integral element of MI, however little is known about the role ambivalence plays in producing change.

Too few community college students who intend to transfer and earn a baccalaureate degree actually do.

Because of the multitude of obstacles these students must conquer, it is crucial to implement effective strategies for improving transfer rates. This dissertation has three components: (1) companion
