Abstract
Reactance refers to an oppositional tendency, and may have the potential to interfere with patients' engagement in intensive group psychotherapy. Using data from an integrative group treatment program for patients with personality dysfunction, the present study investigated reactance with regard to program attendance and premature termination, and with patients' perceptions of the group therapy process. Patients with personality dysfunction (N = 138) completed pretreatment assessments of reactance and symptom distress, along with measures of group process during the early phase of treatment. Nonparametric tests were used to examine patients' attendance and termination status. Mediation analyses were conducted to examine reactance as a potential mechanism in the relationship between personality dysfunction and patients' perceptions of group climate. Reactance was associated with reduced attendance and both patient-initiated and administratively determined premature termination. Among patients who provided ratings of group process (n = 117), reactance served as a significant mediator of the relationship between personality dysfunction and perceptions of both avoidant and conflictual group climate. Reactance is a potential impediment to treatment completion, and contributes to patients' negative perceptions of the group therapy process. The findings indicate a need for clinical attention regarding reactance early in the assessment and treatment-preparation process.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
