Predictors of outcome in residential cognitive and interpersonal treatment for social phobia: Do cognitive and social dysfunction moderate treatment outcome?

An Investigation of Outcome Expectancies as a Predictor of Treatment Response for Combat Veterans With Ptsd: Comparison of Clinician, Self-Report, and Biological Measures

“…A third reported that expectancy was related to one of five self-reported outcomes but not clinician-rated measures 13 . The fourth found a positive relation between a single self-report inventory and expectancy 14 . Within obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), only one study demonstrated a significant relation between outcome expectancy and treatment response 15 .…”

Stepped care versus face-to–face cognitive behavior therapy for panic disorder and social anxiety disorder: Predictors and moderators of outcome

“…At present, only a few studies have investigated potential moderators of outcome comparing two psychological treatments of anxiety disorders (Borge, Hoffart, & Sexton, 2010;Dow et al, 2007b;Hedman et al, 2012;Wolitzky-Taylor, Arch, Rosenfield, & Craske, 2012), of which two have compared different formats of CBT. Dow et al (2007b) reported that higher severity, disability and comorbidity at baseline was associated with a worse outcome from brief (six weeks) but not standard (12 weeks) CBT of PD, and Hedman et al (2012) reported that lower levels of anxiety and depression symptoms was associated with a better outcome from ICBT but not group CBT of SAD.…”

Treatment of Adult Social Anxiety Disorder: A Treatments-by-Dimensions Review

“…However, there was a trend for cognitive therapy to have larger effects on the SAQ than interpersonal therapy (Borge et al, 2008). In addition, greater pre-treatment cognitive dysfunction, as measured by the YSQ and SAQ, predicted poorer treatment outcomes for interpersonal therapy, but made no difference in treatment effects of cognitive therapy (Borge et al, 2010). Thus, although both the cognitive and non-cognitive treatment appear effective for addressing SA-related schemas, cognitive therapy may be more beneficial for clients presenting with greater initial dysfunction.…”

“…As in the previously reviewed studies of non-specific irrational beliefs, Borge and colleagues (Borge et al, 2008;Borge, Hoffart, & Sexton, 2010) compared the effects of a cognitive and non-cognitive treatment on schemas among inpatient clients with SAD. In a comparison of residential cognitive therapy and residential interpersonal therapy, individuals in both conditions showed substantial improvement on the YSQ from pre-treatment to post-treatment and from post-treatment to one-year follow-up.…”
