Neuropsychological outcomes after psychosocial intervention for depression in Parkinson 's disease . The authors describe neuropsychological outcomes in people with Parkinson 's disease ( PD ) after their participation in an NIH-sponsored , randomized , controlled trial of cognitive-behavioral treatment for depression . Improvements in mood were associated with modest gains in verbal memory and executive functioning over the 10-week treatment period and accounted for greater variance in neuropsychological outcomes at the end of treatment than other known correlates of cognitive functioning in PD , such as disease severity , age , and education . Baseline working memory and executive skills were also associated with depression improvement over time .
