Abstract
Depression is prevalent among persons with multiple sclerosis (MS), an acquired neurologic disability that affects predominantly women. The purpose of this article is to review intervention studies on depression in persons with MS. An integrative review of eight intervention studies published from 2000 to 2005 has revealed that various interventions could potentially alleviate depression. Although no definite conclusions can be made from this review, there is reasonable evidence that cognitive behavioral approaches are beneficial in the treatment of depression and in helping people adjust to, and cope with, having MS.
