A comparative study of the effectiveness of group-based cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy in reducing depressive symptoms in Iranian women substance abusers
Overview
This quasi-experimental paper compares the effectiveness of group-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) in reducing depressive symptoms among Iranian women with substance use disorders. The study involved 30 participants randomly assigned to CBT, DBT, or control groups, with outcomes measured using the Beck Depression Inventory after eight sessions. Results indicate that both interventions significantly lowered depression scores compared to baseline, with large effect sizes reported for both modalities.
