The Evidence Base For CAT
Although relatively new, CAT has been the subject of a number of research studies published in peer-reviewed journals. These include Randomised Controlled Trials (RCTs) and other kinds of study. The approach is too new for any systematic reviews of RCTs to have been conducted, and therefore is not yet explicitly recommended by name by the UK National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE). However NICE has recommended that there should be further research of CAT, for example in Borderline personality disorder.

Famous quotes containing the words evidence, base and/or cat:
“There is evidence that all too many people are approaching parenthood with a dangerous lack of knowledge and skill.

That purity built up the State
And after kept it from decay;
Admonish us to cling to that
And let all base ambition be,
For intellect would make us proud....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“I don’t want her to have a cat because she’ll end up talking baby talk to the cat. That’s the way it is, and how can a P.I. do that?”
—Sue Grafton (b. 1940)
