Abstract

This study uses a large, diverse sample of veterans (n = 7763) receiving Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for PTSD to examine factors associated with attrition from evidence-based psychotherapy (EBP). Predictors of treatment dropout are discussed along with implications for future research and treatment retention efforts.
