چکیده

In this study, we examined the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for adolescent depression. Outcomes of 80 youth treated with CBT in an outpatient depression specialty clinic, the Services for Teens at Risk Center (STAR), were compared to a "gold standard" CBT research benchmark. On average, youths treated with CBT in STAR experienced significantly slower symptom improvement than youths in the CBT benchmark. However, outcomes for STAR teens were more similar to the research benchmark when accounting for differences in referral source (clinical versus advertisement) between the datasets. Results support further efforts to test the effectiveness of CBT in clinically representative community practice settings and samples.
