This article describes the application of group computer-assisted therapy for social phobia. The computer program includes a diary function for ongoing self-monitoring of anxiety as well as guidance on the practice of relaxation, cognitive restructuring, and self-control desensitization. Although the program was originally designed to treat individuals with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), it was hypothesized that the program also would be effective for individuals with social phobia; therefore, it was implemented in a group of individuals with a primary diagnosis of GAD or social phobia. We present the case of a client with social phobia who received six sessions of group therapy and who carried the ambulatory computer throughout this treatment. Outcome data suggest that the treatment was highly effective for this client as well as others with a diagnosis of social phobia or GAD.
本文描述了团体计算机辅助疗法在社交恐惧症治疗中的应用。该计算机程序包括一个用于持续自我监测焦虑的日记功能，以及关于放松练习、认知重构和自我控制脱敏的指导。尽管该程序最初是为治疗广泛性焦虑症（GAD）患者而设计的，但据推测该程序对社交恐惧症患者也会有效；因此，它被应用于一组初步诊断为GAD或社交恐惧症的个体。我们介绍了一名社交恐惧症患者的案例，该患者接受了六次团体治疗，并且在整个治疗过程中随身携带移动计算机。结果数据表明，该治疗方法对该患者以及其他诊断为社交恐惧症或GAD的患者都非常有效。
