Research Proposal Literature Review Rough Draft
Topic Selected: Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Depression
Introduction
The prevalence of mental illnesses and disorders has increased due to risk factors that
expose people to mental problems. One of the most common mental disorders is depression or
major depressive disorder. Depression is treated through medications and non-pharmacological
treatment plans such as cognitive behavior therapy. Therefore, the following literature review
analyzed six peer-reviewed sources on how cognitive behavior therapy is used to treat
depression.
Literature Review
The study by Karyotaki et al. (2020) focuses on how internet-based cognitive behavior
therapy (iCBT) can be used to treat mental disorders such as depression. The findings from the
article revealed that iCBT is highly effective in treating depression in the short-term and longterm, primarily when using guided iCBT compared to unguided iCBT. Thus, the article is
relevant to the topic because it demonstrates how iCBT brings positive health outcomes to
patients battling depression.
In another study by Huibers et al. (2021), the authors claim that cognitive behavior
therapy is used to provide personalized psychotherapy to patients suffering from depression. The
article considers cognitive behavior therapy as an evidence-based practice for treating depression
by changing the content and processes of cognition. CBT is also used in treating depression by
regulating the emotions and behaviors of patients.
A study by Furukawa et al. (2021) also illustrates how psychiatric health centers optimize
and personalized internet cognitive behavior therapy to treat depression. According to this
3
article, iCBT is applied as a viable health delivery model to help depressive patients deal with
and cope with symptoms. However, the effectiveness of iCBT for depression depends on the
iCBT package selected by individual patients.
Gautam et al. (2020) claim that depressive disorders are among the most common
psychiatric disorders affecting people in the world regardless of their ages. Therefore, mental
health experts have embraced cognitive behavior therapy as one of the most effective evidencebased psychological interventions for treating depression. However, study reveals that CBT is
more effective for depression when combined with pharmacological treatment plans. CBT also
achieve better mental health outcomes, such as preventing relapse, than using pharmacological
treatment plans alone.
Li et al. (2020) state that the COVID-19 pandemic left many people across the world
battling mental disorders such as depression. Restoring the mental stability of these patients has
not been easy. However, the use of cognitive behavior therapy has assisted in improving the
mental health outcomes of many patients by relieving psychological distress suffered during the
COVID-19 pandemic. Thus, this article is relevant to the topic because it illustrates how CBT
improve the psychological health of patients suffering from depression and other mental
disorders.
In the last article, Thase et al. (2020) emphasize the need to increase cost-effectiveness
and access to CBT as a non-pharmacological treatment plan for treating depression. Therefore,
psychiatric medical centers should highly invest in computer-assisted forms of CBT. Apart from
using standard CBT, it is essential to focus on how to reduce mental healthcare costs and
improve health access. The article concluded that telephone, videoconference, and email-based
4
CBT are part of computer-assisted forms of CBT that lower healthcare costs and improve access
to patients with depression.
Conclusion
Depression has several health consequences when left untreated. The use of medications
alone may not bring positive health outcomes to patients. Therefore, it is essential to integrate
other treatments, such as psychotherapy for depression. One of the most effective
psychotherapies for depression is CBT. All six articles conclude that CBT is highly effective in
treating depression.
