# European Psychotherapy Consortium (EPoC)

A coalition/consortium arising out of the Society for Psychotherapy Research meeting in 2022 and formalised by a paper:
Gonçalves, et al. (2024). Developing a European Psychotherapy Consortium (EPoC): Towards adopting a single-item self-report outcome measure across European countries. Clinical Psychology in Europe, 6(3), e13827. [https://doi.org/10.32872/cpe.13827](https://doi.org/10.32872/cpe.13827)

#### Details

The collaboration brings together psychotherapy researchers from a number of European countries and, as the title of that paper says, aims to encourage researchers and services to adopt a single item change measure, the EPO-1. I confess to methodological concerns but I'm working on them to see if I can show clearly that they need more consideration or not.
