Volunteers needed for teen depression study

The Mood, Emotion and Development Lab at Vanderbilt University is conducting a study to improve treatment for teen depression. Teens with symptoms of depression who are ages 14 to 18 years may be eligible to participate.

Participants will complete interview and questionnaire assessments, along with computer games. Participants will then be offered an eight-week research-based cognitive behavior therapy group that teaches skills to cope with depression, and will be asked to complete additional assessments during and after treatment. Financial compensation will be provided.
