I found this article through Academic Search Premier, using "depression treatment" as a search term. The article compares responses to internal and psychotherapeutic treatments among two groups, those with melancholia and those without. Presence of melancholia is generally associated with a more severe condition. It finds that melancholia predicts a poor response to psychotherapy and placebo, and a good overall response to antidepressants and ECT.
