“…All interviews were conducted independently by a psychodiagnostician. The HRSD is one of the most widely used, and best validated indexes of depressive symptoms (Brown, Schulberg, & Madonia, 1995;Sayer et al, 1993), and displays strong significant correlations with other scales measuring depression, including the Beck Depression Inventory (Beck, Steer, & Garbin, 1988).…”

The present research examines links between adult attachment styles, working alliance, and treatment response in men and women receiving 16 sessions of supportive-expressive dynamic psychotherapy for major depression. 58 clients were assessed using the Relationship Questionnaire and the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HRSD) prior to commencement of psychotherapy. The Working Alliance Inventory was completed in session 3, and the HRSD was readministered after six and 16 sessions. Results indicated that a high proportion (39%) of the sample reported 'fearful-avoidant' attachment at intake. Fearful avoidance also longitudinally predicted significantly more negative outcomes (particularly over the initial six sessions), but was unrelated to working alliance. Working alliance was unrelated to treatment response. Findings highlight the negative impact of fearful attachment on treatment response, but indicate that this occurs independent of the working alliance. The avoidance of intimacy for fear of rejection appears to impede successful psychotherapy, and treatment should be tailored for these clients.

Background: Deficits in emotion regulation skills are possible factors maintaining major depressive disorder (MDD). Therefore, the aim of the study was to test whether integrating a systematic emotion regulation training (ERT) enhances the efficacy of routine inpatient cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for MDD. Methods: In a prospective randomized controlled trial, 432 inpatients meeting criteria for MDD were assigned to receive either routine CBT or CBT enriched with an intense emotion regulation skills training (CBT-ERT). Results: Participants in the CBT-ERT condition demonstrated a significantly greater reduction in depression (response rates - CBT: 75.5%, CBT-ERT: 84.9%; remission rates - CBT: 51.1%, CBT-ERT: 65.1%). Moreover, CBT-ERT participants demonstrated a significantly greater reduction of negative affect, as well as a greater increase of well-being and emotion regulation skills particularly relevant for mental health. Conclusions: Integrating strategies that target emotion regulation skills improves the efficacy of CBT for MDD.

Background: A number of clinical research studies have found evidence that patients from Western and non-Western countries express both somatic and psychological symptoms. Although somatic and psychological symptoms appear to coexist, patients may express more of one type of symptom, somatic or psychological, over the other depending upon the nature of the illness and the patients’ psychosocial contexts. Sampling and Methods: The present study investigated the influence of Westernization, stigma, severity of symptoms, and other factors on the symptom presentation of 60 South Indian psychiatric patients, using both open-ended and symptom-directed interviewing methods. Symptom presentation was explored in terms of a balance of psychological and somatic symptoms. Results: Participants predominantly emphasized somatic symptoms as their first spontaneously reported symptom. More Westernized participants and those with higher symptom severity scores tended to present a more psychological balance of symptoms. Participants with a greater concern about stigma tended to present a more somatic balance of symptoms. Conclusions: The findings suggest that several factors, including the Westernization that occurs in non-Western countries as a result of globalization, can impact an individual’s expression of distress.
