Abstract
Discusses the adequacy with which the defining technical characteristics of brief psychotherapy (BP) have been examined, the degree to which many studies offered treatment that exemplified well-conceptualized BP, the extent to which research has addressed representative clinical problems and populations, and the existence or lack of a cumulative data base on the prescriptive use of brief methods. The advantages and limitations of BP are also considered. It is concluded that BP methods, when appropriately applied, possess unique technical advantages to the researcher.
