Taken together, these results provide promising preliminary data for the clinical efficacy of Stressbusters as a valid form of CCBT for adolescents with depression.
A number of clinical descriptions of Obsessive‐Compulsive Disorder (OCD) in adolescence are available but are often of small numbers of cases with highly selective recruitment methods. We describe the findings of a systematic case note review of 44 consecutive OCD patients referred to Oxford Regional Adolescent Unit between 1974 and 1984. The relative frequencies of previously described features of the condition in this age group are presented. Many patients had problems with peer relationships and social isolation, which often preceded the onset of other symptoms by many years. The management of the cases and outcome at discharge are outlined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
