Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This meta-analysis evaluates the effectiveness of cognitive behavior therapy for major depression and four anxiety disorders, adjusting for publication bias and trial quality. The authors report large effect sizes when comparing CBT to waiting list controls, but note that effects are smaller when compared to care-as-usual or placebo. The resource concludes that while CBT is likely effective, the overall evidence remains uncertain due to a low proportion of high-quality trials.
