| Secondary study design | Randomised controlled trial |
| Scientific title | |
| Study objectives | 1. That the clinical effectiveness of computer based interactive behavioural self help is equal to the clinical effectiveness of a traditional cognitive behavioural self help manual for adults suffering from mild to moderate depressive illness or anxiety. 2. That traditional cognitive behavioural self help manuals are more cost effective than computer based interactive cognitive behavioural self help for adults suffering from mild to moderate depressive illness or anxiety. 3. That both computer based interactive cognitive behavioural self help and traditional cognitive behavioural self help manuals are at least as clinically effective as GP care as usual for adults suffering from mild to moderate depressive illness or anxiety. |
