Depression is the cause of illness loss of well-being, and the rate of depression has continually increased among Muslim adolescents. The guideline for depression is very important for the prevention of health problems especially suicide. This systematic review of literature review intended to review the research studies related to guidelines for Muslim adolescents with depression from electronic databases and manual searching during 2010 to 2020. That proceeded as the systematic review concept of Joanna Briggs Institute. The researches selected by using the inclusion criteria form that was developed by the researcher. A total of 94 studies were found related to the topic; however, nine studies matched with the criteria, which five studies were experimental studies and the other four studies were quasi – experimental studies.
The results of this systematic review revealed that, the concepts and theories of the nine studies were psychosocial theories which consisted of the cognitive theories, humanistic or existential theories, and behavioral theories. Activities for adolescents with depression and process to provide care consisted of two ways, using positive psychology according to humanistic concepts and the adjustment of thinking and behavior according to cognitive and humanistic concepts. The therapy sessions were about 5 to 10 times, 45-120 minutes per session, and a self-report was used for assessment. The results revealed that the psychosocial therapy is an effective way to reduce depressive stress and anxiety symptoms. The qualitative approach should be used for investigating other significant features of guidelines including in-depth phenomena of clinical practices for further research.
