Zusammenfassung:OBJECTIVES: Compared the effectiveness of religious cognitive-behavioral therapy (RCBT) versus conventional CBT (CCBT) on reducing spiritual struggles in persons with major depressive disorder (MDD) and medical illness. METHODS: Participants were randomized to receive 10 sessions of RCBT (n = 65) or CCBT (n = 67). Spiritual struggles were assessed at baseline, 12, and 24 weeks using the Brief RCOPE. Mixed effects growth curve models compared the effects of treatment on change in spiritual struggles. RESULTS: RCBT and CCBT reduced spiritual struggles to a similar degree over time (B = –0.48, SE = 0.31, df = 151, t = –1.53, p = .127, d = 0.25). Similar results were found in those with high religiosity and with high spiritual struggles at baseline. Higher baseline spiritual struggles predicted a slower decline in MDD (B = 0.47, SE = 0.20, t = 2.30, p = .022) independent of treatment group.
