Official title: Digital Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Chinese Adolescents With Depressive Symptoms(CADS-D ): A Randomized Clinical Trial
CADS-D aimes to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of a newly DCBT program for Chinese adolescents with depressive symptoms.
Read the detailed description
CADS-D is a single-center, two-arm, open-label randomized controlled trial. The trial targeted 12-18 years adolescents with depressive symptoms. Intervention group receives the digital cognitive behavioral therapy (DCBT) program for 6 weeks, while the control group receives the regular mental health curriculum provided by school staff for 6 weeks. Assessments are conducted at three time points: baseline, post-intervention (6 weeks), and at 3 months follow-up (18 weeks). The primary outcome is the effectiveness of DCBT. Secondary outcomes include the feasibility of DCBT, self-reported depressive severity, anxiety severity, psychological resilience, and the quality of life enjoyment and satisfaction.

Measured: Baseline of intervention period, 6 weeks, and 3 months follow-up (18 weeks)
Secondary outcomes (5)
Feasibility of DCBT
Feasibility is assessmented by an acceptability and satisfaction questionnaire. The questionnaire constitutes 10 items which designed to examine acceptability and satisfaction with DCBT. In the first 8 questions, participants rated each item on a 5-point Likert scale. In last 2 questions, participants are asked to write the best and worst things about DCBT.
Measured: 6 weeks
Changes in PHQ (9-item Patient Health Questionnaire) scores from baseline
Improvement in self-reported depressive symptoms. Total scores range from 0-27, with higher scores indicating greater severity of self-reported depressive symptoms.

Changes in GAD-7 (Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item Scale) scores from baseline
Improvement in self-reported anxiety symptom. Total scores range from 0-21, with higher scores indicating greater severity of self-reported anxiety symptoms.
Measured: Baseline of intervention period, 6 weeks, and 3 months follow-up (18 weeks)
Changes in CD-RISC ( Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale) scores from baseline
Improvement in psychological resilience assessed by Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale. Total scores range from 0-100, with higher total scores indicating stronger psychological resilience.
Measured: Baseline of intervention period, 6 weeks, and 3 months follow-up (18 weeks)
Changes in PQ-LES-Q (The Paediatric Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Questionnaire) scores from baseline
