Abstract
Cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) is an effective treatment for depressed adults. This systematic review of 91 studies found strong evidence that CBT interventions yielded a larger short-term decrease in depression scores compared to treatment-as-usual, with face-to-face CBT showing -1.11 standardised difference. Multimedia and hybrid CBT might be as effective as face-to-face CBT.
