Abstract

The present study investigated the association of depressive personality traits to treatment outcome for depression. One hundred and nineteen patients with a primary diagnosis of major depression were divided into high‐ and low‐depressive personality groups, and depression symptomatology was assessed pre‐ and postparticipation in a standardized group cognitive–behavioral intervention. Analyses revealed poorer pre‐state and end‐state functioning for the high‐depressive personality group. However, rate of improvement pre‐ to posttreatment was comparable between the two groups. Subsequent multiple regression analyses revealed that when controlling for pretreatment depression severity, depressive personality was not a predictor of depression treatment outcome. Within the methodological parameters of the current study, depressive personality traits were not associated with a poorer response to cognitive–behavioral treatment for depression. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
