EFT is now the second most
empirically validated form of marital therapy in North America
(Alexander, Holtzworth-Munroe & Jameson, 1994, in A. Bergin & S.
Garfield (Eds), Handbook of Psychotherapy & Behavior Change, 4th
edition). The average effect size reported in the last article
noted above is 1.3. This is very large. Effects sizes for
couples therapies reported by Shadish et al (1993) range from
.60 to .90. Studies in EFT have found that 70 - 73% of couples
are recovered from distress at follow-up, that is, they are no
longer distressed.
