A new cognitive therapy (CT) program was compared with an established behavioral treatment. Sixty-two patients meeting Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (4th ed.; American Psychiatric Association, 1994) criteria for social phobia were randomly assigned to CT, exposure plus applied relaxation (EXP = AR), or wait-list (WAIT). CT and EXP = AR were superior to WAIT on all measures. On measures of social phobia, CT led to greater improvement than did EXP = AR. Percentages of patients who no longer met diagnostic criteria for social phobia at posttreatment-wait were as follows: 84% in CT, 42% in EXP = AR, and 0% in WAIT. At the 1-year follow-up, differences in outcome persisted. In addition, patients in EXP = AR were more likely to have sought additional treatment. Therapist effects were small and nonsignificant. CT appears to be superior to EXP = AR in the treatment of social phobia.
将一种新的认知疗法(CT)项目与一种既定的行为疗法进行了比较。62名符合《精神障碍诊断与统计手册》(第4版;美国精神病学协会,1994年)社交恐惧症标准的患者被随机分配到CT组、暴露加应用放松疗法(EXP = AR)组或等待名单(WAIT)组。在所有测量指标上,CT组和EXP = AR组均优于WAIT组。在社交恐惧症的测量指标上,CT组比EXP = AR组带来了更大的改善。治疗后不再符合社交恐惧症诊断标准的患者百分比在等待组中为0%,在EXP = AR组中为42%,在CT组中为84%。在1年的随访中,结果差异依然存在。此外,EXP = AR组的患者更有可能寻求额外的治疗。治疗师的影响很小且不显著。在社交恐惧症的治疗中,CT似乎优于EXP = AR。
