Dismantling mindfulness-based cognitive therapy for recurrent depression implicates lack of differential efficacy for mindfulness training

Open access

Abstract

Risk of relapse among patients diagnosed with major depressive disorder is high (>50% of those recovering from a first episode of depression, and approximately 80% of those with a history of two or more episodes),1 and this risk increases with each successive depressive episode.2 Several clinical trials have demonstrated that mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) significantly reduces relapse risk among patients with three or more prior depressive episodes.3 Yet, MBCT contains multiple therapeutic elements, and the specific efficacy of the mindfulness training element in MBCT is unknown.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
