“…SC involves identifying and striving to alter underlying, stable cognitive patterns thought to constitute a vulnerability to depression. In recent years, several experts in CT have placed more emphasis on this component of CT (J. S. Beck, 1995;Persons, Davidson, & Tompkins, 2001;Young, Weinberger, & Beck, 2001). Consistent with the idea that SC may be helpful, Segal et al (2006) found that CT patients endorsed fewer negative beliefs following a mood induction than patients treated with pharmacotherapy.…”

Cognitive therapy (CT) for depression is designed to teach patients material that is believed to help prevent relapse following successful treatment. This study of 35 moderately to severely depressed patients who responded to CT provides the 1st evidence to suggest that both development and independent use of these competencies predict reduced risk for relapse. Among patients who responded to treatment, both CT coping skills and in-session evidence of the independent implementation of CT material predicted lower risk for relapse in the year following treatment. These relationships were not accounted for by either symptom severity at the end of treatment or symptom change from pre- to posttreatment. Self-esteem, assessed at posttreatment, failed to predict risk for relapse in the year following treatment. Thus, CT coping skills and independent use of CT principles, but not overall satisfaction with oneself, appear to play an important role in relapse prevention.
