The Effectiveness of Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Borderline Personality Disorder: Results from the Borderline Personality Disorder Study of Cognitive Therapy (BOSCOT) Trial
Overview
This paper reports results from a randomized controlled trial comparing cognitive behavior therapy plus treatment as usual against treatment as usual alone for 106 individuals with borderline personality disorder. The study evaluated outcomes including suicidal acts, hospitalizations, and emergency room contacts over two years, alongside secondary mental health and social functioning measures. Findings indicate a significant reduction in the number of suicidal acts favoring the CBT group, along with gradual improvements across both arms.
