Psychotherapy research studies can place particular demands on clinicians, patients, and research staff due to the need to balance the pursuit of knowledge with the offer of treatment. However, the literature with regard to ethical considerations in psychotherapy trials is minimal. The current paper aims to depict CBT community standards of practice in the context of two NIMH-funded treatment trials of major depression, both involving CBT and medication. We describe issues that arose; discuss the ethical considerations involved; and describe our course of action, along with our rationale.
心理治疗研究由于需要在追求知识和提供治疗之间取得平衡，可能会对临床医生、患者和研究人员提出特殊要求。然而，关于心理治疗试验中的伦理考量的文献却很少。本文旨在描述在两项由美国国立精神卫生研究所（NIMH）资助的重度抑郁症治疗试验背景下的认知行为疗法（CBT）社区实践标准，这两项试验都涉及CBT和药物治疗。我们描述了出现的问题；讨论了其中涉及的伦理考量；并描述了我们的行动过程及其理由。
