What are the Epidemiological Methods Used to Study CBT?

Several epidemiological methods are employed to study the impact of CBT on mental health outcomes:

Cohort Studies: These studies follow groups of individuals over time to assess the long-term effects of CBT on mental health outcomes.
Case-Control Studies: These studies compare individuals who have received CBT with those who have not, to identify differences in mental health outcomes.
Cross-Sectional Studies: These studies assess the prevalence of mental health conditions in populations that have undergone CBT at a single point in time.
