Psychotherapy of Bipolar Affective Disorder – A Review of the Research Evidence Purpose: Numerous controlled therapy studies showed that patients suffering from unipolar depression can be effectively treated with psychotherapy. Such an adjunctive psychotherapy to standard medication is also suggested to be helpful for patients with bipolar affective disorder. We planned to conduct a meta-analysis to test whether this assumption is also empirically based. Methods: We conducted a literature research using Medline, Psyclit, and Psyndex. We considered all publications in journals dealing with the topic ‘psychotherapy and bipolar disorder’ until the end of 1999. This search resulted in 212 English or Geman articles. Results: A more detailed analysis using the criteria ‘diagnosis’, ‘intervention’, ‘sample size’ and ‘outcome measures’ reduced this to 78 and finally 33 papers. Only 19 of these 33 publications were considered as ‘controlled trials’ and only 50% of these were original papers which definitely dealt with a sample of patients with bipolar disorder treated in a controlled trial. These 9 studies were heterogeneous refer-ring to treatment approach, setting, clinical status of the patients, and outcome variables so that we decided against a meta-analysis. Therefore, the controlled studies were de-scribed in some detail. Conclusion: Although the results of these trials somehow argue for the usefulness of adjunctive psychotherapy for bipolar disorder, we still do not know yet whether it is effective at all and who would benefit from which treatment.

K. S. Dobson (1989) conducted a meta-analysis of 28 studies of cognitive-behavioral therapy for depression that used the Beck Depression Inventory as outcome measure. He concluded that the outcome of this type of therapy was superior to that of other forms of psychotherapy and to that of pharmacotherapy. The present study reanalyzed the same studies, and a further set of 37 similar ones published from 1987 to 1994, taking into account variations in sample size and researcher allegiance. This study confirmed Dobson's conclusions for his original sample but showed that about half the difference between CT and other treatments was predictable from researcher allegiance. However, comparable analyses of the later set of studies showed no effect of researcher allegiance. Two causes for these phenomena are (a) a historical effect, whereby both effect sizes and allegiance were large in earlier years and declined over time and (b) a treatment effect whereby effect size and allegiance were correlated, but more for some treatments than others. This correlation has also weakened over time.
