简要总结
A total of 87 Australian women participated in this RCT with 43 randomly allocated to the iCBT intervention and 44 to the control condition. Of the 36 women who started iCBT, 26 completed all three lessons of treatment. iCBT produced moderate to large effect size reductions for anxiety and psychological distress that were superior to TAU. Only small nonsignificant differences were found for depression outcomes. Participants reported that iCBT was an acceptable treatment for antenatal anxiety and/or depression. This is the first study to evaluate brief unguided iCBT for antenatal anxiety and depression. While our findings are promising, particularly for anxiety reduction, additional RCTs are required to establish treatment efficacy.
