Six patients meeting DSM-III criteria for dysthymic disorder completed fifteen weekly sessions of one hour of individual cognitive therapy. Pre-, post- and six months follow-up assessments were carried out by an independent assessor. A significant improvement in depression was observed after treatment and maintained at six months follow-up. Clinically, improvements were meaningful and wide ranging and four of the patients no longer met DSM-III criteria for dysthymic disorders. Cognitive treatment acted specifically as it reduced significantly the frequency of negative automatic thoughts during treatment and follow-up. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
