Religious vs. Conventional Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Major Depression in Persons With Chronic Medical Illness
Overview
This study compares conventional cognitive behavioral therapy (CCBT) and religiously integrated CBT (RCBT) for treating major depression in individuals with chronic medical illnesses. The randomized trial involved 132 participants receiving ten remote sessions over twelve weeks, finding no significant overall difference in efficacy between the two approaches. However, results suggest that higher client religiosity may be associated with slightly greater adherence and efficacy when using RCBT.
