Note. Ns=336–416. Primary values are Pearson’s r. Symptoms aggregate is the mean of one clinician-rated report (17-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression) and the average of two patient-rated reports (Beck Depression Inventory; Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology-Self Report) standardized relative to the first CT session assessment.

SoCT = Skills of Cognitive Therapy; CT = Cognitive Therapy; MDE = Major Depressive Episode; OR = odds ratio from logistic regression with response as the dichotomous outcome variable.
