Overview

Systematic review shows moderate effects of transdiagnostic interventions on depression and anxiety in adolescents, suggesting cognitive behavioral therapy as effective.

Key Points

  • Transdiagnostic interventions improved depression and anxiety levels among adolescents in outpatient settings.
  • Cohen's d effect sizes were 0.21 for depression and 0.20 for anxiety, indicating moderate improvements.
  • Meta-analysis included 68 studies and 10,805 individuals with a mean age of 16.96 years; heterogeneity was noted.
  • Findings emphasize the need for further research on eating disorders and suicidal behavior in youth.
