| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Depressive disorders are one of the leading causes of years lost due to disability in young adults. The personality trait of harm avoidance (HA) has been associated with risk for depression. We examined the effect of group cognitive behavioral therapy (G-CBT) on preventing depression in first-year university students with high HA.
Participants were randomly assigned to either the G-CBT program group or usual care group. Outcomes were measured by the Beck Depression Inventory, the 28-item General Health Questionnaire, and the Manifest Anxiety Scale. No statistically significant between-group differences in depressive symptoms were found at the end of the 12-month follow-up period. However, significant within-group decreases in depressive symptoms were observed in the G-CBT program group. The significant decrease in depressive symptoms sustained over the 12-month follow-up period within the intervention group indicates that G-CBT may, in the short-term, act to prevent depression.
