Building on the empirical data supporting the efficacy of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for child anxiety, researchers are working on the development and evaluation of cost-effective and transportable CBT approaches. Related to this, a widely endorsed goal is to disseminate evidence-based treatments from research settings to community settings. Computer-assisted treatments have emerged as a means to provide cost-effective and efficient service to an increased number of anxious youth for whom a CBT treatment would be otherwise unavailable. We offer a rationale for the development and evaluation of computer-assisted psychosocial treatments for anxiety in youth, offer illustrative advances made in this area, and describe our efforts in using computers to enhance dissemination of CBT for child anxiety. Specifically, our illustrations include a description of (a) Camp-Cope-A-Lot (CCAL), a computer-assisted CBT for the treatment of anxiety disorders in youth ages 7-12, and (b) CBT4CBT: Computer-based training in CBT for anxious youth. Findings from evaluations of these programs are summarized, and further advances are proposed and discussed.
基于支持认知行为疗法（CBT）治疗儿童焦虑症的有效性的实证数据，研究人员正在致力于开发和评估具有成本效益和可转移的 CBT 方法。与此相关的是，一个广泛认可的目标是将基于证据的治疗方法从研究环境传播到社区环境。计算机辅助治疗已成为为更多焦虑青年提供成本效益高和有效的服务的一种手段，否则他们将无法获得 CBT 治疗。我们为开发和评估针对青年焦虑的计算机辅助心理社会治疗提供了一个理由，展示了该领域的进展，并描述了我们利用计算机来增强儿童焦虑症 CBT 传播的努力。具体来说，我们的说明包括：（a）CCAL，一种针对 7-12 岁青少年焦虑障碍的计算机辅助 CBT；（b）CBT4CBT：针对焦虑青年的 CBT 基于计算机的培训。总结了这些项目的评估结果，并提出和讨论了进一步的进展。
