Investigated the relative effectiveness of the behavioral and cognitive approaches to the treatment of depression using clinically depressed clients and the relationship between self-esteem and depression before and after treatment. Sixteen depressed patients matched for sex, age, and levels of depression were involved. Ss were assigned to either the cognitive or the behavioral treatment groups. Three weeks' baseline followed by 8 weeks' treatment programme was given to Ss in each group. The results of the statistical analysis show that both treatment groups are effective in alleviating depression, but the cognitive treatment group improved at a faster rate than the behavioral group. No significant correlation between self-esteem and depression was observed at baseline. However, a significant inverse correlation was observed at posttreatment and follow-up. The findings showed that both behavioral and cognitive approaches were effective in the treatment of depression. However, the cognitive approach was slightly better than the behavioral approach.
研究了行为疗法和认知疗法对临床抑郁症患者治疗的相对有效性，以及治疗前后自尊与抑郁之间的关系。纳入了16名在性别、年龄和抑郁水平上相匹配的抑郁症患者。将受试者分为认知治疗组或行为治疗组。每组受试者先进行三周的基线观察，然后接受为期八周的治疗方案。统计分析结果表明，两个治疗组在减轻抑郁方面均有效，但认知治疗组的改善速度比行为治疗组更快。在基线时未观察到自尊与抑郁之间存在显著相关性。然而，在治疗后和随访时观察到显著的负相关。研究结果表明，行为疗法和认知疗法在治疗抑郁症方面均有效。然而，认知疗法略优于行为疗法。
