Note. ADM = Antidepressant medications; CT = Cognitive Therapy; continuation-medication = Continuation antidepressant medications during the continuation phase; continuation-placebo = Placebo during the continuation phase.

The percentage of patients in each treatment condition meeting response and sustained response criteria.
The narrow bars display the proportion of patients who met response criteria in the two treatments (ADM and CT) at the end of the 16-week acute phase. The wide bars represent the estimated proportion of patients who survived the 12-month follow-up period without a relapse. Bars on the left half of the figure represent patients diagnosed with a comorbid personality disorder; bars on the right represent patients who did not have a comorbid Axis-II diagnosis.
