Abstract

This article outlines the initial psychometric evidence for the emotionally focused therapy skills rubric (EFTSR). The EFTSR is designed to assess clinician's emotionally focused therapy (EFT) skill proficiency, identify how EFT skills are used within the basic movements of EFT, and evaluate a clinician's ability to use the EFT attachment injury resolution model . The EFTSR content validity was confirmed with two overall content validity indexes of .86 and .87. There was substantial item-level internal consistency reliability, with α scores ranging from .70 to .99 for both videos. Item-total correlations were higher than .20 for most items demonstrating substantial interrater reliability. Thus, results indicate initial support for using the EFTSR as theoretically based instrument designed to assess counselors’ ability to execute the skills of the EFT model.
