Abstract
Children with major depression were investigated with respect to their outcome when being in cognitive behavioral treatment. Treated and non-treated patients were compared. Outcome was evaluated for stress coping, stress load, and a biological indicator for chronic stress. Children in treatment reported more inadequate coping and more stress but had lower cortisol after awakening. Treatment seemed to initiate processes of awareness insofar as the girls in treatment had a better perception of their present problems.
