Background summary
The present project aims to examine variations in effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral therapy in clinically anxious children. The effectiveness of a manualized cognitive-behavioral treatment for childhood anxiety disorders will be compared with treatment as usual within community agencies. It is expected that the manualized cognitive-behavioral treatment will provide less anxiety symptoms after treatment and at follow-up compared to treatment as usual.
Study objective
The effectiveness of a manualized cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT) for clinically anxious children will be tested in a sample of Dutch children (aged 8-12 years) who are assigned to one of three Dutch community agencies in Arnhem and Nijmegen. It is expected that children who receive the manualized treatment will show lower levels of anxiety symptoms compared to the control group, which will receive treatment as usual by the institutions.
Study design
1. Baseline;
2. Posttreatment (3 months after intervention);
3. Follow-up (after 1 year).
Intervention
Children will be randomly assigned to the experimental or control group.
Children in the experimental group will receive a manualized cognitive behavioral treatment for anxiety disorders developed and tested by Bogels and colleagues (Bodden et al., 2008).
Children in the control group will receive treatment as usual in the institution for the same period of time (12-15 weeks).
