    La investigación sobre efectividad psicoterapéutica y el estudio de la personalidad han ocurrido de manera más o menos paralela. Actualmente es posible plantear al menos dos puntos de convergencia: el estudio del efecto de la psicoterapia sobre el cambio de la personalidad y la investigación de los efectos de las variables de personalidad de los pacientes sobre el proceso psicoterapéutico. En el presente artículo se exponen algunos avances de la investigación de proceso-resultado en psicoterapia que incluyen la personalidad como variable. En particular, se presenta el problema del cambio de la personalidad y se revisan algunas investigaciones en psicoterapia que la han incorporado como una medida de resultado o de proceso. Se concluye y discute el valor de la noción de personalidad en la investigación de la psicoterapia, integrando asuntos teóricos, prácticos y metodológicos.

    Psychotherapeutic effectively research and personality research have developed in parallel ways. Nowadays, it is possible to identify two convergent perspectives: the study of the effect of the psychotherapy over personality change and the study of the effects of patients' personality variables over the psychotherapeutic process. In this paper some advances of process-outcome psychotherapy research, which includes personality as a variable, are shown. Specifically, the issue of personality change is presented and empirical studies, which include personality as an outcome or process measurement, are reviewed. The value of the concept of personality for psychotherapy research is discussed integrating theoretical, practical and methodological topics.
