    Abstract: Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) have provided considerable evidence for the short-term efficacy of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) in children and adolescents with depressive and anxiety disorders. However, the effectiveness and long-term stability of treatment effects under routine care conditions remain unproven. Aims: This observational study investigates the effectiveness and stability of CBT under routine care conditions within a large sample of clinically referred youth with depressive and anxiety disorders. Method: Two hundred and twenty former patients (age 6–18 years at start of treatment) underwent a follow-up assessment (follow-up interval: M =5.3 years, SD =2.47). Parent and self-ratings of behavioural and emotional problems were obtained at the beginning and end of treatment and at follow-up. Additionally, at follow-up, a telephone interview and questionnaires exploring other mental symptoms and life satisfaction were administered. Results: A repeated measures ANOVA yielded statistically significant, medium to large pre– post symptom reductions (η p 2 =.15 to η p ²=.47) and small to medium post-follow-up symptom reductions (η p ²=.03 to η p ²=.19). At follow-up, between 57 and 70% of the sample reported a decrease in different emotional symptoms since the end of treatment, and 80% reported improved life satisfaction. Conclusions: These findings provide evidence for the effectiveness and stability of treatment effects of CBT in youth with depressive and anxiety disorders under routine care conditions. Due to the lack of a direct control condition and a substantial proportion of missing data, the results must be interpreted with caution.

    Abstract: This observational study examined treatment satisfaction (TS) following routine outpatient cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) in a large sample of children ( n  = 795; aged 6 to 10 years). TS was investigated in parent and therapist rating. Means, standard deviations and inter-rater correlations were calculated to investigate TS. Regression analysis was conducted to examine potential correlates of TS (patient-related variables, mental disorder characteristics, socio-demographic factors and treatment variables). High TS in parent and therapist rating was found, with therapists showing a lower degree of TS than parents (completely or predominantly satisfied: parent rating 94.1%, therapist rating 69.5%). A statistically significant, moderate inter-rater correlation was found. Regression analysis explained 21.8% of the variance in parent rating and 57.2% in therapist rating. Most of the TS variance was explained by mental disorder characteristics (parent-rated symptoms and therapist-rated global impairment at treatment end) and by treatment variables (especially the therapist-rated cooperation of parents and patients), whereas socio-demographic and patient-related variables did not show any relevant associations with TS. Based on these results, to optimize TS, therapists should concentrate on establishing a sustainable cooperation of parents and children during therapy, and work to achieve a low global impairment at treatment end.

    Abstract: Progress feedback provides therapists with progress notes on a regular basis through the continuous assessment of participants throughout their treatment (e.g., symptoms, therapeutic alliance). While for adults the evidence base has increased over the years, progress feedback in the therapy of children and adolescents has not been sufficiently investigated. This manuscript describes the trial protocol of the OPTIE study: a randomized trial that tests the efficacy of a progress feedback system in children and adolescents under conditions of routine care. Methods The study is based on a randomized parallel-group trial with two treatment groups (routine, feedback) at an outpatient unit of a university hospital. The target sample size is 439 families consisting of children and adolescents aged 6 to17 years old with internalizing and/or externalizing symptoms. Both the patients and the therapists are independently assigned to the treatment groups by stratified block randomization. In both treatment groups patients receive routine care behavioral therapy for a study-related 12 months; additionally, in the feedback group, a progress feedback system with three components is applied (monitoring, report, and supervision). For three informants (caregiver, child [≥ 11 years], therapist) surveys are conducted every 6 weeks (e.g., symptoms, goals, motivation). For both treatment groups, comparison data is collected at baseline and at six and 12 months after the beginning of the intervention (pre, inter, post), and includes five informants (blinded clinician, therapist, caregiver, child [≥ 11 years] , teacher). Discussion The OPTIE study will contribute to the evidence base of progress feedback in children and adolescents and has the potential to uncover treatments’ effects in the small to medium range. Noteworthy features are the inclusion of children younger than 10 years old and the consideration of a blinded clinician rating.
