TY - JOUR A1 - Ihle, Wolfgang A1 - Jahnke, Dörte T1 - The efficacy of family involvement in the treatment of anxiety disorders and depressive disorders in childhood and adolescence : Current state of evidence-based psychotherapy N2 - This paper describes the current findings concerning efficacy from randomized controlled trials of family-based interventions for children and adolescents with anxiety and depressive disorders. To date, parents have only been included in controlled trials of cognitive-behavioral interventions. Efficacy trials for anxiety disorders have only been carried out in 6- to 14-year olds, but have shown that younger children (7 to 10 years old) benefited when the family was involved. By contrast, the existing efficacy trials for depressive disorders have been limited to adolescents (13 to 18 years old), and have shown that family-based interventions are not superior to pure adolescent therapy Y1 - 2005 UR - https://publishup.uni-potsdam.de/frontdoor/index/index/docId/13684 SN - 0942-5403 ER -
