Principles DBT
(1) Exploit current
functional
contingencies
DBT therapists & staff use praise and
warmth to reinforce occurrences of skill use
that are recorded naturalistically;
Individuals are taught to use skills in
contexts that will reinforce the use of skills (e.g., with supportive significant others)
(2) Train diversely
EVERYONE learns
DBT
DBT therapists & staff attempt to increase
the use of skills across a wide array of
relevant contexts
(3) Incorporate
functional mediators
DBT therapists & staff are paired with skill
acquisition in treatment sessions; Diary
card, audiotapes, telephone etc. All are
factors that can function to evoke skills
previously learned in the therapy setting
Principles of Skill Transfer (Stokes
and Osnes, 1989) and DBT

Generalization/Skill Transfer in
DBT
• Functional mediators (e.g., diary card, phone,physical reminders of sessions) are used
• However, one size does not fit all when it comes
to generalization….• So, solution analyses are critical when planning
for skill generalization
• Solution analyses promote the personalized
application of functional mediators (e.g., how willTHIS way of transferring skills work THIS weekfor YOU? Why won’t it work?)
