We report the current best estimate of effects cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) in treatment major depression (MDD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), panic (PAD) and social (SAD), taking into account publication bias, quality trials, influence waiting list control groups on outcomes. In our meta‐analyses, we included randomized trials comparing CBT with a condition (waiting list, care‐as‐usual or pill placebo) acute MDD, GAD, PAD SAD, diagnosed basis structured interview. found that...
Structured interviews and questionnaires are important tools to screen for major depressive disorder. Recent research suggests that, in addition studying the mean level of total scores, researchers should focus on dynamic relations among symptoms as they unfold over time. Using network analysis, this paper is first investigate these patterns short-term (i.e. session session) dynamics a widely used psychological questionnaire depression - Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II).With newly...

Participants completed measures before 16-weeks after starting...
Evidence about the cost-effectiveness and cost utility of computerised cognitive-behavioural therapy (CCBT) is still limited. Recently, we compared clinical effectiveness unsupported, online CCBT with treatment as usual (TAU) a combination TAU (CCBT plus TAU) for depression. The study registered at Netherlands Trial Register, part Dutch Cochrane Centre (ISRCTN47481236).To assess TAU.Costs, depression severity quality life were measured 12 months.

In this conceptual paper, we outline the many challenges on road to personalized psychotherapy, using example of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) for depression. To optimize psychotherapy individual patient, need find out how works (identification mechanisms change) and whom it moderators). date, research has not resulted in compelling evidence or against common specific factors that have been proposed as change. Our central proposition is combine “how does work?”-question with “for order...
