Abstract

A study designed to identify predictors of treatment outcome in patients with depression has found that while patients who were matched to their preferred treatment were more likely to complete the study, they were no more likely to achieve remission of symptoms. Despite this finding, the researchers suggested that asking patients whether they prefer medication or behavioral therapy for their depression can reveal beneficial information. Study results were published online March 24 in the American Journal of Psychiatry.
