Trial of a Positive Psychology Intervention in Major Depressive Disorder
Major Depressive DisorderIn this study, the investigators will perform an exploratory randomized trial of Positive Psychology (PP). The trial will consist of 50 participants and will compare the impact of a phone-based PP intervention vs. an attentional control condition, in Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) patients who are hospitalized for SI or following a suicide attempt. This is a 12 week trial with 6 weeks of intervention and two blinded follow-up assessments at 6 and 12 weeks. Specific Aim #1: To assess the feasibility and acceptability of the phone-based PP intervention in this high-risk population. Hypotheses: The intervention will be feasible (with most patients completing at least 4/6 PP and with follow-up data from at least 80% of subjects). The ratings of ease and subjective helpfulness of the exercise and other mental states as measured before and after each PP exercise will be more than 6 out of 10 and higher than the same ratings obtained from subjects in the control condition. Specific Aim #2: To examine the impact of the six-session PP intervention on positive psychological well-being. Hypothesis: Compared to control subjects, subjects randomized to PP will have greater scores on scales of optimism (measured via the Life Orientation Test-Revised [LOT-R]), gratitude (Gratitude Questionnaire-6 [GQ-6]), and positive affect (Positive Affect Negative Affect Schedule [PANAS]) at 6 and 12 weeks. Specific Aim #3 (primary aim): To assess the impact of the PP intervention on key suicide risk factors. Hypothesis: PP subjects will have greater scores on scales of hopelessness (Beck Hopelessness Scale [BHS]; primary study outcome measure), suicidal ideation (SI) (Concise Health Risk Tracking scale [CHRT]), and depression (Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology-Self Report [QIDS-SR]) at 6 and 12 weeks. We will also measure impact on readmission and suicide attempts to assess these key outcomes.

Blended Collaborative Care for Heart Failure and Co-Morbid Depression
Heart FailureSystolic2 moreDepression is highly prevalent among patients with heart failure (HF) and associated with lower levels of health-related quality of life and physical functioning, and higher risk of rehospitalization and mortality, and higher health costs. This Project will compare the effectiveness of a "blended" telephone-delivered collaborative care intervention for treating both HF and depression to: (1) collaborative care for HF-alone ("enhanced usual care"; eUC); and (2) doctors' "usual care" for depression (UC). If proven effective and cost-effective, the potentially more powerful, scalable, efficient "blended" care approach for treating HF and co-morbid depression could have profound implications for improving chronic illness care and stimulate development of "blended" interventions for treating other clusters of related medical conditions.

Comparison of Anyu Peibo With Placebo in Treatment of MDD
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)The purpose of this study is to determine whether Anyu Peibo Capsule in different doses are effective in the treatment of Depression. And to explore the preliminary information of safety and efficacy of Anyu Peibo Capsule in the Chinese Patients with Depression.

Auricular Acupuncture vs. Progressive Muscle Relaxation in Patients With Anxiety Disorders or Major...
Anxiety DisordersDepressive Disorder1 moreThe purpose of this study is to determine whether auricular acupuncture (AA) according to the NADA protocol and progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) differ in their effectiveness of treating people with anxiety disorders or major depressive disorder. We hypothesized, that both treatments show significant effects in alleviating the examined items (tension, anxiety, anger/aggression and state ofr mood) and that there is no significant difference between these two treatments.

Positive Valence System Enhancement Treatment for Anxiety and Depression: Clinical Efficacy and...
Anxiety Disorders and SymptomsDepressionThe proposed project aims to test the efficacy and neural correlates of a behavioral treatment program comprised of positive activity interventions in a sample of individuals seeking treatment for anxiety or depression. Participants will be randomly assigned to an immediate or delayed treatment condition, and will be compared on measures of positive and negative emotions, brain responses to reward and punishment/loss, subjective well-being, and symptoms at baseline and post-treatment.

The Neurobiology of Approach Avoidance Training in Depression
Major Depressive DisorderThe purpose of this study is to test the effects of a computerized approach/avoidance training (AAT) procedure on behavioral, affective, and brain mechanisms that are important for reward sensitivity and well-being in individuals diagnosed with major depression. The training procedure is designed to modify automatic approach responses for positive social stimuli. The primary aim is to determine the effects of approach/avoidance training on the functioning of brain systems during reward processing in individuals diagnosed with major depression. A secondary aim will determine whether brain activation patterns following approach/avoidance training predict subsequent affective and behavioral responses during reward processing. An exploratory aim will test whether completing the approach/avoidance training procedure in combination with a brief computer-delivered behavioral activation program for depression will produce larger changes in depression symptoms, positive emotions, and social relationship functioning from pre- to post-intervention compared to the control training procedure.
