BRIEF REPORTS

Computer-administered cognitive-behavioral therapy for depression

PM Selmi, MH Klein, JH Greist, SP Sorrell and HP Erdman
Department of Psychiatry, University of Wisconsin Medical School, Madison 53792.

The authors evaluated a six-session interactive computer cognitive- behavioral treatment program given to volunteer patients who met Research Diagnostic Criteria (RDC) for major or minor depressive disorder. Patients were randomly assigned to computer-administered cognitive-behavioral treatment, to therapist-administered cognitive- behavioral treatment, or to a waiting-list control condition. After treatment and at 2-month follow-up, both treatment groups had improved significantly more than control subjects in their scores on the Beck Depression Inventory, SCL-90-R depression and global scales, Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression, and Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire. The treatment groups did not differ from each other at either time.
