AB  - The benefits, and variables influencing the benefits, of short-term dynamic 
      psychotherapy for chronic major depression versus nonchronic major depression 
      were examined for 49 patients. The two diagnostic groups started at the same 
      level on the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and Global Assessment of Functioning 
      Scale (GAF) and benefited similarly. The bases for the benefits were examined by 
      linear models explaining 35% of termination BDI variance and 47% of termination 
      GAF scores. By far the largest contributor to outcome was initial GAF, followed 
      by presence of more than one comorbid Axis I diagnosis. Initial level of 
      depression on the BDI was not a significant predictor of termination BDI. The 
      chronic/ nonchronic distinction accounted for less than 1% of explained variance, 
      and little was added by personality disorder, age, or gender.
