The application of Internet-based intervention in the treatment of depression

Many empirical studies have shown that Internet-based psychological intervention is effective in treating depression. In recent years, a large number of related studies have been accumulated, but there is a lack of organization. This paper reviews and summarizes the relevant research (including systematic review, randomized controlled trial and meta-analysis) in CNKI and Web of Science databases, expounds the application of Internet-based psychological intervention in the treatment of depression from both theoretical and practical aspects, and prospects the future research work.
