Examining External Validity in Efficacy and Secondary Articles of Home-Based Depression Care Management Interventions for Older Adults

Of the 8 articles describing DCM home interventions, 2 were excluded from our analysis because the interventions were not effective. From the 6 efficacy articles eligible for review, 11 secondary articles were identified. Three of the secondary articles were excluded because they had no information about external validity, leaving 8 secondary articles eligible for review. The 6 efficacy articles and the 8 secondary articles brought the total to 14 articles eligible for review.
