Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Anxiety is chronic, debilitating, and the most common mental health problem across development, costing the U.S. over $42 billion annually. This phased innovation grant will test a symptom-personalized cognitive bias modification for interpretation bias (CBM-I) as a mechanistic intervention to reduce interpretation bias and, subsequently, anxiety, in clinically anxious youth. In this R33 trial, participants will be youth ages 10 to 17 (N=72) with a primary "big three" anxiety disorder (i.e., Generalized, Separation, Social). Youth will be randomly assigned to receive either 16 sessions of personalized CBM-I (the optimal dose identified in the R61 Phase of this study) or equivalent time (four one-hour sessions) over four weeks of a cognitive restructuring (CR), intervention. Both interventions aim to modify threat-focused thinking. Please note that the first phase of the trial (R61: NCT04245501 under NIMH award R61MH121552) has been completed and currently this record summary only reflects the R33 phase.
