Study	Reason for exclusion
Abbott 2009	Web‐based intervention was compared to wait‐list control or care as usual
ACTRN12611001114932	Web‐based intervention was compared to wait‐list control or care as usual
ACTRN12615000574549	Web‐based intervention was compared to attention or active control group that was not in‐person with equivalent content to intervention group
ACTRN12615001015538	Web‐based intervention was compared to wait‐list control or care as usual
Aikens 2014	Web‐based intervention was compared to wait‐list control or care as usual
Alexopoulos 2014	Web‐based intervention was compared to wait‐list control or care as usual
Allexandre 2012	Web‐based intervention was compared to equivalent intervention with addition of in‐person support group
Allexandre 2016	Web‐based intervention was compared to equivalent intervention with addition of in‐person support group. A computer‐based stress management intervention was compared to the equivalent computer‐based intervention with the addition of in‐person group support. While the group meeting facilitated and supported the weekly assignments, it did not deliver them. Therefore, the comparator could not be considered an in‐person intervention.

Ebert 2014a	Web‐based intervention was compared to equivalent intervention with addition of online support. A computer‐based stress management intervention was compared to the equivalent computer‐based intervention with the addition of human support to increase adherence and provide feedback. While the in‐person component in the comparator was supportive it did not deliver the intervention entirely. Therefore, the comparator could not be considered an in‐person intervention.
