Findings/conclusions<br />

comparisons reported significant<br />

results (ES= 0.50-0.75).<br />

9 of 19 selective comparisons<br />

reported positive effects (ES=<br />

0.27-0.9).<br />

All 3 indicated trials reported<br />

significant outcomes (ES=<br />

0.23=0.60).<br />

Current findings provide support<br />

for programs in community<br />

settings.<br />

CBT-based programs are likely <strong>to</strong><br />

be associated with good<br />

outcomes,<br />

Exercise may be of value in the<br />

prevention of depression, and<br />

computer-based programs may<br />

be useful if programs are <strong>to</strong> be<br />

rolled out <strong>to</strong> larger numbers.<br />

6 of 8 studies reported postintervention<br />

reductions in<br />

symp<strong>to</strong>ms of anxiety and/or<br />

depression or improvements in<br />

diagnostic ratings.<br />

Three of these studies also<br />

reported improvements at<br />

follow-up.<br />
