The efficacy of cognitive behavioral therapy for Chinese people: A meta-analysis
Overview
This meta-analysis synthesizes 55 studies involving 6,763 participants to evaluate the efficacy of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for Chinese populations. The authors report medium overall effect sizes for primary outcomes in both short- and long-term contexts, with specific benefits noted for anxiety, depression, and caregiving stress. The resource highlights that culturally adapted CBT demonstrates stronger short-term effects than unadapted versions and identifies several moderators influencing treatment efficacy.
