This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. Behavioral Activation (BA) Therapy is a psychosocial treatment intervention that has been shown to be efficacious with moderately to severely depressed adults.1 The purpose of the present study is to complete a pilot project that will first focus on adapting Behavioral Activation Therapy for use with adolescents, and second focus on applying this psychosocial/psychotherapeutic intervention to a group of depressed adolescents. As this study represents an initial effort to adapt and apply the treatment, the focus of the research project will be on modifying the treatment manual, piloting the treatment with a group of depressed adolescents, and examining the feasibility of utilizing BA Therapy with this population. If the results of this adaptability and feasibility pilot project suggest that BA Therapy may be a useful intervention with depressed adolescents, the focus will turn to making further revisions in the manual and writing a grant to study the effectiveness of BA Therapy with depressed adolescents in a controlled trial. This pilot project represents a single center study in which twelve to sixteen adolescents (both male and female, between the ages of 12 and 16) with Major Depressive Disorder will receive a 12-week course (16 sessions) of Behavioral Activation Therapy. In an effort to examine the adaptability, feasibility, and general efficacy of this treatment with depressed adolescents, a variety of measures will be collected.
