Summary
This study investigates how antidepressant pharmacotherapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, or their combination modulate the temporal dynamics and connectivity of depressive symptom networks. Using intensive longitudinal ecological momentary assessment data, the trial examines treatment-specific changes in symptom interactions. By applying network-based analytic approaches, the study aims to elucidate differential and potentially complementary mechanisms of change across treatment modalities. Findings may contribute to more informed and individualized treatment strategies for major depressive disorder.
