Statistically significant improvements in the experimental group can also be seen in the evaluation of depression according to the BDI-II (Table I). There was a significant difference in the mean values of the BDI-II before and after rehabilitation in the experimental group (14.3 (SD 5.1)) and in the control group (6.9 (SD 5.1)). In the experimental group 45 cases (90%)showed reduced depression, in 5 cases (10%) it remained unchanged,and no cases showed an impaired condition. In the control group we observed improvement in 29 cases (60%),in 20 cases (40%) the condition remained unchanged, and no
cases showed an impaired condition
