| Summary or Abstract
|
:
|
Patients seeking treatment for a new episode of Major Depressive Disorder at a HMO mental health clinic were surveyed about their preferences over the characteristics of depression treatment programs: treatment effectiveness, use of anti-depressants, number of hours of psychotherapy per month, out-of-pocket cost, and the presence of three possible side effects (weight gain, reduced sex drive, and inability to orgasm). Each respondent also chose her preferred treatment from alternative depression treatment programs. Each treatment option varied in terms of the treatment characteristics noted above..
