1 the improvement of interpersonal problems in the experimental group CBT KCT will be greater than the improvement in the control group CBT
2 the improvement of interpersonal problems will be associated with decreasing symptom severity related to the primary diagnosis so that patients in the conjoint CBTKCT treatment will reach higher symptom change scores than patients in the CBT only condition
