This Hybrid 1 Study will test the effectiveness of a bundled intervention comprised of behavioral activation and medication optimization in reducing symptoms of depression and anxiety in older adults undergoing Orthopedic surgery (compared with usual care), while examining implementation outcomes.

Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of two administrations of COMP360 in participants with treatment-resistant depression (TRD)

The pilot trial aims to test the feasibility, acceptability and cultural appropriateness of online LTP+CaCBT for treating postnatal depression and to improve the mental health and wellbeing of mothers and their children in the UK.

This study aims to compare the efficacy and safety profile of Magnetic Seizure Therapy and Electroconvulsive therapy.

The study will compare the impact FIRST (a transdiagnostic treatment built upon five empirically supported principles of change) versus usual care outpatient psychotherapy on youths' mental health outcomes and a candidate mechanism of change: regulation of negative emotions.

This study will recruit 120 ethnic minorities in Hong Kong from the Zubin Foundation (TZF) at the Ethnic Minority Well-being Centre (EMWBC), which is a service provider of EM mental health support in Hong Kong. This service provides counselling service and referrals to HA via the Integrated Community Centre for Mental Wellness (ICCMW) to psychiatrists. The service covers the South Asians population of approximately eighty-four thousands people in Hong Kong. Participants will be recruited by the Zubin Foundation through outreach activities screening and counselling will be conducted in partnering schools and NGOs (e.g., Yan Oi Tong in Tuen Mun and Yew Chung College of Early Childhood Education in Aberdeen). The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of counselling service for improving mood symptoms in EM, also to assess the effectiveness of counselling service in improving psychological functioning (i.e. resilience and rumination, self-compassion, self-efficacy and life satisfaction), social functioning and quality of life and to assess whether the counselling service is cost-effective and offers good value for money. The study is a wait-list RCT. Participants will be randomly assigned into either the intervention group (n = 60) or the wait-list control group (n = 60) in a 1:1 ratio. Each participant in the intervention group will be paired up with a participant from the control group, the number of sessions and duration of waiting period varies depending on the severity of mood symptoms. Participants with mild to moderate mood symptoms will receive a maximum of 6 counselling sessions and will be assessed at baseline (T0, W1), at post -treatment for counselling group (T1, W8), and after 2 booster sessions. Participants in the waiting list control group will receive the same counselling service after the counselling group completed the intervention. Participants with severe mood symptoms will receive a maximum of 10 counselling sessions and will be assessed at baseline (T0, W1), at post-treatment for counselling group (T1, W12), and after 2 booster sessions. Participants in the waiting list control group will receive the same counselling service after the counselling group completed the intervention. This evaluation study will provide data to inform the government in mental health policy review and development.

The purpose of the study is to examine the effect of Problem Adaptation Therapy for Pain (PATH-Pain) on cognitive functioning, depression and pain-related disability in 100 older adults with cognitive impairment, chronic pain, and depression. The study will test if PATH-Pain has better cognitive, affective, and functional outcomes than Attention Control Usual Care.

Internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy for anxiety and depression have far-reaching potential to overcome common barriers to accessing evidence-based treatment, such as waiting lists, travel distance and costs. Despite the undeniable promise of iCBT, several aspects remain poorly understood and warrants further study. The INTERMENTAL project is a joint effort between Norwegian Institute of Public Health, Norwegian Directorate of Health and six Prompt Mental Health Care (PMHC) services, situated in 11 municipalities, to evaluate the iCBT interventions developed by the technology company "Assistert Selvhjelp" (AS-iCBT). We will conduct a large-scale hybrid effectiveness-implementation randomized controlled non-inferiority trial that will provide new knowledge on the effectiveness, cost-effectiveness and implementation of AS-iCBT in primary care. Primary objective: Examine the non-inferiority of guided internet-based cognitive behavioural treatment "Assistert Selvhjelp" (AS-iCBT) compared to treatment as usual in the primary care service Prompt Mental Health Care (TAU-PMHC) with regard to effects on symptoms of anxiety and depression. Secondary objectives: (i) Examine the non-inferiority of AS-iCBT compared to TAU-PMHC on other outcomes such as quality of life, functional level, specific anxiety measures (social anxiety, panic disorder), sleep and employment status; (ii) Examine the cost-effectiveness of AS-iCBT compared to TAU-PMHC; (iii) Examine to what extent moderators and mediators of change are associated with treatment effectiveness of AS-iCBT; (iv) Assess whether AS-iCBT is as acceptable and appropriate for treatment of anxiety and depression as TAU-PMHC, and examine barriers/facilitators for their further implementation.
