Depressive disorders can affect all aspects of a person's functioning and are often associated with significant psychosocial impairment. Such psychosocial problems promote studies of the efficacy of short-term psychotherapy for depressive disorders. This report summarizes the literature on acute-phase, short-term psychotherapy for adult outpatients with major depressive disorder and is an updated component of a larger review commissioned by the United States Public Health Services Agency for Health Care Policy and Research (AHCPR review on "Short-term Psychotherapy for Depression," Jarrett and Maguire [1991]; Jarrett and Down [in press] during the preparation of the Clinical Practice Guidelines in primary care (Depression Guideline Panel 1993). The short-term psychotherapies reviewed here and studied most often include behavior therapy, cognitive therapy, interpersonal psychotherapy, and brief dynamic psychotherapy, which all aim to reduce depressive symptoms. We comment on the state of the literature and raise some of the questions which await data.
抑郁症会影响一个人生活的方方面面，并且常常与严重的社会心理障碍相关。这类社会心理问题推动了针对抑郁症的短期心理治疗效果的研究。本报告总结了关于成年门诊重度抑郁症患者急性期短期心理治疗的文献，它是美国公共卫生服务机构医疗保健政策与研究署委托进行的一项更大规模综述（关于“抑郁症的短期心理治疗”的AHCPR综述，贾勒特和马奎尔[1991年]；在编写初级保健临床实践指南期间，贾勒特和唐[即将发表]，抑郁症指南小组，1993年）的更新部分。这里所综述且研究最为频繁的短期心理治疗方法包括行为疗法、认知疗法、人际心理治疗和简短动力学心理治疗，所有这些疗法都旨在减轻抑郁症状。我们对文献状况进行评论，并提出一些有待数据解答的问题。
