- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The primary outcome measure to determine effectiveness of the intervention will be the change in depression symptom severity as measured by the self-report Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology (IDS-SR, Rush et al., 1996) across 6 time points: baseline, after 4 weeks of ESM and at 4 follow-ups at 4, 8, 12, and 24 weeks (post-ESM). Subjects will be followed prospectively to compare the effectiveness of the intervention modules mutually and to the control group, before and during TAU.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method From a patient perspective, functional outcomes are at least as relevant as clinical outcomes. Therefore, we will also assess change in psychosocial functioning by means of the Outcome Questionnaire (OQ-45, Lambert et al., 1996) and the extent to which individuals regain self-esteem and take control over their own lives by means of the Dutch Empowerment questionnaire (NEL; Boevink, Kroon, & Giesen, 2010). <br /><br /><br><br>Cost-effectiveness will be determined by the means of the quality of life measure EQ-5D (Prieto et al., 2013) and the TiC-P questionnaire on medical costs and productivity losses (Bouwmans et al. 2013) adjusted for a psychiatric population. <br><br><br>
