ABSTRACT
The authors compared the effectiveness of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT), Imipramine Clinical Management (ICM) to Placebo Clinical Management (PCM) for outpatients with early-onset chronic depression (N = 65) in the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) Treatment of Depression Collaborative Research Program (TDRP). The post-treatment depression scores of the CBT. IPT, and ICM groups were not significantly different from the PCM group. We did not find a relationship between the duration of Major Depression and response to a specific treatment. Studies are needed to determine if combining psychotherapy with medication improves social functioning and enhances the quality of life for patients with chronic depression.
