Research Question 7: Do proportions of therapist immediacy differ across time (1 st , 2 nd ,<br />

and 3 rd thirds of intake sessions) and condition (engager versus non-engager)?<br />

For immediacy, there were no significant interactions or main effects. There was<br />

no statistically significant Condition X Time interaction, F(2, 3856) = 1.69, p = .185.<br />

Therapist use of immediacy did not significantly differ between engagers and non-<br />

engagers, F(1, 3861) = 1.68, p = .195. Therapist use of immediacy did not differ across<br />

thirds of the intake sessions, F(2, 3858) = 0.75, p = .472. Figure 7 depicts the adjusted<br />

estimated mean percentages of immediacy across thirds of the intake session for engagers<br />

and non-engagers combined.<br />
