Remote EMDR vs CBT for PTSD After Kahramanmaraş Earthquakes: Randomized Trial Results

89 adult survivors of the 2023 Kahramanmaraş earthquakes in Türkiye participated in a randomized trial comparing remote Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for PTSD. The dataset likely contains clinical outcome measures from assessments at baseline, mid-treatment, and post-treatment. The trial was registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT06758362) and the results were published by author Metin Çınaroğlu.

Use Cases

• Compare the efficacy of remote EMDR and CBT for PTSD based on primary and secondary outcome measures.
• Analyze symptom reduction patterns over time based on assessments conducted at baseline, mid-treatment, and post-treatment.
• Study differential treatment effects on core PTSD symptoms versus depressive symptoms based on the described response patterns.

Strengths

• Data originates from a randomized controlled trial with 89 participants, providing a structured experimental design.
• The study includes three assessment points (baseline, mid-treatment, post-treatment) allowing for longitudinal analysis.
• Results include specific effect size estimates (Cohen's d) for PTSD, depression, and anxiety outcomes.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is very small (16.1 KB), indicating limited scope.
