¿Influye la empatía o la personalidad del psicoterapeuta en su forma de hacer terapia? ¿Es la relación terapéutica la clave del éxito? Cuestiones como estas son habitualmente compartidas en la investigación de procesos de cambio y éxito en psicoterapia. No obstante, estos enunciados, planteados en términos transversales descriptivos, implican la utilización de estrategias basadas en modelos explicativos causales-lineales. El presente trabajo ofrece una herramienta alternativa que permite medir elementos de la psicoterapia en términos dinámicos, interactivos e interdependientes. Con nueve categorías observacionales definidas bajo un prisma analítico-conductual, el Sistema Acoveo es un instrumento diseñado para detectar las potenciales funciones de las verbalizaciones que tienen lugar en el contexto psicoterapéutico procedente de cualquier orientación teórica. Se proporciona una guía sobre su aplicación, y se elabora su utilidad sobre dos de los factores comunes clave en el estudio de los procesos de cambio, la empatía y la alianza terapéutica.
