Computer-administered cognitive-behavioral therapy for depression.
The authors evaluated a six-session interactive computer cognitive-behavioral treatment program given to volunteer patients who met Research Diagnostic Criteria ( RDC ) for major or minor depressive disorder . Patients were r and omly assigned to computer-administered cognitive-behavioral treatment , to therapist-administered cognitive-behavioral treatment , or to a waiting-list control condition . After treatment and at 2-month follow-up , both treatment groups had improved significantly more than control subjects in their scores on the Beck Depression Inventory , SCL-90-R depression and global scales , Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression , and Automatic Thoughts Question naire . The treatment groups did not differ from each other at either time
