Sample Demographics
depressive, anxiety disorder
A total of 72 adults who had been recommended outpatient CBT for a main diagnosis of a depressive or anxiety disorder were offered to participate in this study, of whom 47 (65%) provided their consent. In each group, 16 participants provided their clinical outcomes (70% and 67% of the 23 and 24 Eleos and TAU group participants, respectively). A total of 6 therapists participated in the AI group, and they treated between 1 to 6 clients; 8 therapists provided interventions in the TAU group, treating between 1 to 4 clients. Therapists could choose which study arm they wanted to join, and there were no significant group differences in the therapists’ profession, years of practice and training, or licensing status.
