This study investigates the preventive effects of a "One-Day Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)" on perinatal depression among expectant couples using a randomized controlled trial. The program is designed for both in-person and online delivery. Beyond evaluating the efficacy of these two formats, the study seeks to clarify their respective strengths and limitations, as well as to develop strategic improvements for their practical application.
