TY - JOUR PY - 1998// TI - Marital therapy in the treatment of depression: toward a third generation of therapy and research JO - Clinical psychology review A1 - Beach, S. R. A1 - Fincham, Frank D. A1 - Katz, Jennifer SP - 635 EP - 661 VL - 18 IS - 6 N2 - Two generations of outcome research demonstrate the potential efficacy of marital therapy in the treatment of depression. After reviewing treatment outcome studies on marital therapy for depression, we examine basic research linking aspects of the marital relationship to depressive symptoms. In doing so, we highlight a number of theoretical perspectives and research findings that can inform work with couples in which one spouse is depressed. Finally, we identify potential innovations that may lead to a third generation of marital interventions for depression and several avenues of inquiry for a third generation of outcome research on marital therapy for depression.
