3 Rating scales
After the video has been rated, you should quantify the therapeutic alliance in terms of overall Engagement in the Therapeutic Process, Emotional Connection with the Therapist, Safety within the Therapeutic Context, and/or Shared Sense of Purpose within the Family. To do this, you assign a value from -3 (not at all) to +3 (very much) for each individual (client or therapist) on the SOFTA-o dimension(s) based on the valence, frequency, intensity, and context of the observed items. The SOFTA-o Manual (in the HELP menu) provides guidelines for translating the behavioral ratings to global dimensional ratings.
