Cumulative findings in psychotherapy research support the centrality of the therapeutic relationship, and especially of the alliance, for psychotherapy and change. This underscores the importance of examining the intrinsic relational character of the psychotherapeutic change process, through the study of the specific micro-processes involved in the dynamic construction and maintenance of the therapeutic relationship that ultimately bear influence over therapeutic change. It is of particular interest to further explore the ways in which patient and therapist mutually regulate and negotiate their affective exchange in the process of establishing and shaping the alliance. >-X%($[&/.2!

Subproject 1: Systematic qualitative study of former patients and therapists’ reports of their experience in therapy; and qualitative analysis of the item contents of the most often used instruments of alliance. Subproject 2: transversal comparison of over 39 therapeutic processes regarding ongoing change, and final outcome. Subprojects 3 and 4: A single case study, systematically analyzed with qualitative and quantitative procedures, regarding nonverbal facial behavior and regulatory processes within the negotiation of the alliance. A nested analysis approach was implemented for the association between variables belonging to different levels of analysis.
