简要总结
Project UPLIFT, a home-based treatment for depression in people with epilepsy, was designed to be delivered to groups by telephone or Web. The Project UPLIFT intervention materials were demonstrated to be effective in treating depression among people with epilepsy in Georgia. This project will assess whether the materials are also effective for preventing depression among people with epilepsy, and will extend the project beyond Georgia to Michigan, Texas, and Washington.
详细描述
The study is a pilot test of Project UPLIFT for depression prevention during which the acceptability and estimates of effectiveness of the intervention, presented in the Web and telephone modes, are assessed.

Project UPLIFT (Treatment)
Participants randomly assigned to the Treatment group receive the UPLIFT Intervention immediately after completing the Baseline Assessment. Participants can chose to participate in the Web- or phone-delivery of UPLIFT.
干预措施: Project UPLIFT (Behavioral)
Project UPLIFT (TAU Waitlist Control)
Participants randomly assigned to the Treatment-as Usual (TAU) Waitlist Control group will also receive the UPLIFT intervention. However, TAU Waitlist Control participants will begin the Intervention 8 weeks after completing the Baseline Assessment. During the initial 8 weeks, participants in this group will continue whatever treatment they are currently undergoing to prevent or treat mild depressive symptoms.
