Primary Outcome(s)
|
Our project thus aimes to assess the effects of ET on reduction of depressive symptoms (HAMD-21, BDI), anhedonia (TAF) and a patient's health resources (MR FSF) in a randomized, controlled, parallel-group design. We expect ET to reduce depressive residual symptoms and anhedonia and improve self care as effectively as the validated reference treatment (psychoeducation). 3 measuring times: baseline, post intervention an follow-up (after 3 month). Following questionaires were used: •Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) •Tübinger-Anhedonie-Fragebogen (TAF) •Becks Depressions Inventar (BDI II) •Marburger Skalen zur Selbstfürsorge (MR FSF)
|
Secondary Outcome(s)
|

Gesundheitszustand), SF-36), self-efficacy (Fragebogen zum Selbstwirksamkeitserleben, SWE), locus of control (Fragebogen zur Erhebung von Kontrollüberzeugungen zu Krankheit und Gesundheit, KKG), sense of coherence (Marburger Skalen zum Kohärenzsinn, MR SOC). 3 measuring times: baseline, post intervention an follow-up (after 3 month).
