Piloting a Nature-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Program on Participants with Depressive Symptoms_A Randomized Control Trial

The data is collected amongst Chinese adults with depressive symptoms. Two experimental groups have been generated, one receiving indoor CBT and one receiving nature-based (outdoor) CBT. Both programs were of 8 sessions. It is to explore whether the nature-based CBT is superior than the indoor CBT in bringing the healing effect. Measurements include Beck Depression Inventory-II, Beck Anxiety Inventory, Dysfunctional Attitude Scale and its subscales, and Connectedness with Nature. Data of pre program, 1 month post, and 6 months post were collected.本数据集采集自存在抑郁症状的中国成年人。本研究设置两组实验组：一组接受室内认知行为疗法（Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT），另一组接受基于自然环境的（户外）认知行为疗法。两项干预方案均包含8次疗程。本研究旨在探究基于自然环境的认知行为疗法在治疗效果上是否优于室内认知行为疗法。测评工具包括贝克抑郁量表第二版（Beck Depression Inventory-II）、贝克焦虑量表（Beck Anxiety Inventory）、功能失调性态度量表（Dysfunctional Attitude Scale）及其子量表，以及自然联结量表（Connectedness with Nature）。分别在干预前、干预后1个月及干预后6个月三个时间点采集相关数据。
