Zusammenfassung	The Collaborative Study Psychotherapy Rating Scale (CSPRS) is an observer-rated measure of therapist adherence to a psychotherapy protocol and general competence in delivering the intervention. Developed for the NIMH Treatment of Depression Collaborative Research Program, the CSPRS uses audiotape or videotape review to assess whether therapists follow intended treatment protocols and execute techniques skillfully. It is the gold standard instrument for fidelity and competence measurement in psychotherapy research and training.	The Working Alliance Inventory (WAI) is a validated, empirically supported measure of the therapeutic alliance—the collaborative relationship between therapist and client. Developed by Horvath and Greenberg in 1989, the WAI operationalizes Bordin's tripartite model of alliance: agreement on goals, agreement on tasks, and emotional bond. It is one of the most widely used alliance measures in psychotherapy research and is a strong predictor of psychotherapy outcome across diverse theoretical orientations and client populations.
