Réponse à Perron et al. concernant leur texte : « Quelques remarques méthodologiques à propos du rapport Inserm Psychothérapie. Trois approches évaluées »

In conclusion, Perron's et al. criticisms are, in fact, against the application of scientific methodology to the assessment of the efficacy of psychotherapies as a whole. Nevertheless, the Inserm report has some weaknesses; the low number of studies of PP, the lack of direct comparisons between CBT and PP, the fact that multiple efficacy criteria were not taken into consideration, and the problem of comorbidities which was insufficiently taken into consideration.
