Year: 2025

Type: data-paper

Abstract: The data presented in this article concern 86 Iranian individuals with treatment-resistant depression (TRD), who participated in a randomized controlled trial comparing intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy (ISTDP) to a waitlist condition. Adults with major depressive disorder (MDD), who had not responded to prior treatment with antidepressant medication, were randomly assigned to ISTDP (n = 43) or waitlist (n = 43). The dataset includes demographic variables and the outcome measures: all subscales of the Weinberger Adjustment Inventory (WAI), and the Negative Affect subscale from the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS-NA). Outcome measures were collected at baseline, post-treatment (10 weeks), and 3-month follow-up.
