Abstract
The World Health Organization estimates that more than 300 million people suffer from depression worldwide, and mental and
behavioral disorders top the list of the leading categories of diseases and disorders in the USA, coming in second only to cardio-
vascular disease. Such impact is seen to disproportionately affect the workplace since over 70% of those diagnosed with depression
are also employed. Past research has suggested that employee absenteeism can be reduced through treatment for depression and
anxiety, yet no study to date has examined the effectiveness of text therapy as a scalable delivery medium. Employing a retrospective
within-subjects design, this study evaluated the treatment outcomes of text therapy for depression and anxiety and the impact such
treatment had on engagement with employment. Adults secking text therapy treatment for a variety of disorders were recruited from
a text therapy service (N=51) Clinical outcomes were measured using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 and the Generalized
Anxiety Disorder-2 after 14 to 15 weeks of treatment. An additional outcome variable was measured with the Work Productivity and
Activity Impairment scale. Treatment acceptability was assessed with ratings of cost-effectiveness and retum on investment
concerning increased employee productivity. Participants reported significantly less depression and anxiety (PHQ-9, d=1J4;
and GAD-2, d. 1.17) on
7) overall. Thirty-one of the 38 participants (84%) with clinically elevated depression and 25 of the 39
participants (64%) with clinically elevated anxiety experienced clinically significant symptom reduction. Participants reported
