title: Measures of treatment outcome of depression: an effect-size comparison.
abstract: Meta-analytic studies of the values of various measures of the outcome of antidepressive treatment have consistently shown that different scales produce different patterns of progress for the same patients, but results have differed somewhat in other respects. The present results suggest that these problems are probably related to use of different scales emphasizing different aspects of depression.
