Are People Worse Off in a Mental Health Treatment Paradigm Where Medication Is Deemphasised? A Naturalistic Noninferiority Trial of an Initiative to Improve Patient Choice

Emotional dysfunction was operationalized through the Affect Integration Inventory. Sixty‐one patients receiving treatment at specialized outpatient hospital facilities for either…

Conflict with Parents in Adolescent Depression
Conflict with parents is common among depressed adolescents, interferes with treatment, and may increase risk of recurrence.

This study compared parental interpersonal problems to parental depressive symptoms as predicto…
