    Abstract:
    This pilot study evaluated the feasibility, effectiveness, and helpfulness of Insight-Plus, a brief culturally-tailored cognitive behavioral intervention for African-American and Caucasian rural low-income women at risk for APD [Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) > or = 10]. Forty two percent (63/149) of women in this non-randomized study were at risk for APD and 41% (26/63) of women, who met all eligibility criteria, initially agreed to participate. Seventeen participants completed all six intervention sessions. Ninety-four percent (16/17) who completed their one-month post-intervention interviews had an antepartum recovery rate of 81% (13/16, EPDS < or = 10). Participants reported that many aspects of the program were helpful and they continued to use the intervention exercises after the sessions ended.
