Creating a Therapeutic Alliance with Caregivers: An Introduction to Motivational Interviewing.
Article in Behavior analysis in practice, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The training of behavior analysts emphasizes scientific knowledge and expertise in implementing the principles of behavior analysis. Although knowledge of and skills in the implementation of behavior analysis are important, we argue that the way in which behavior analysis is practiced may be equally important. In many other helping professions (e.g., psychology, medicine), trainees are explicitly taught the skills needed to build a therapeutic alliance and a frequently used training modality is motivational interviewing. Originally developed for, and still used as an intervention component to facilitate client engagement in intervention, motivational interviewing has been demonstrated to be both highly effective in enhancing intervention outcomes and for strengthening rapport between a clinician and a client. We argue that motivational interviewing has relevance to the practice of behavior analysis and should be adopted within training programs.
