          Abstract

          A large amount of research has accumulated on the efficacy and effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for anxiety disorders including posttraumatic stress disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, and specific phobia. The purpose of the current article is to provide an overview of two of the most commonly used CBT methods used to treat anxiety disorders (exposure and cognitive therapy) and to summarize and discuss the current empirical research regarding the usefulness of these techniques for each anxiety disorder. Additionally, we discuss the difficulties that arise when comparing active CBT treatments, and we suggest directions for future research. Overall, CBT appears to be both efficacious and effective in the treatment of anxiety disorders, but dismantling studies are needed to determine which specific treatment components lead to beneficial outcomes and which patients are most likely to benefit from these treatment components.

          Se ha acumulado una gran cantidad de investigación acerca de la eficacia y efectividad de la terapia cognitivo conductual (TCC) para los trastornos de ansiedad, los que incluyen el trastorno por estrés postraumático, el trastorno obsesivo compulsivo, el trastorno de pánico, el trastorno de ansiedad generalizada, el trastorno de ansiedad social y las fobias específicas. El propósito de este artículo es entregar una panorámica sobre los dos métodos de TCC más comúnmente empleados para tratar los trastornos de ansiedad (exposición y terapia cognitiva), y resumir y discutir la investigación empírica actual con respecto a la utilidad de estas técnicas para cada uno de estos trastornos. Además se discuten las dificultades que surgen al comparar tratamientos activos de TCC y se sugieren directrices para la investigación futura. En forma global la TCC parece ser eficaz y efectiva en el tratamiento de los trastornos de ansiedad, pero se requieren estudios desagregados para determinar qué componentes específicos del tratamiento conducen a resultados beneficiosos y qué pacientes tienen más probabilidades de beneficiarse de estos componentes del tratamiento.

          L'efficacité et l'efficience des thérapies cognitivo-comportementales (TCC) dans le trouble anxieux, dont le trouble stress post-traumatique, les trouble obsessionnel compulsifs, le trouble panique, l'anxiété généralisée, l'anxiété sociale et les phobies spécifiques, ont fait l'objet de beaucoup de recherches. L'objectif de cet article est de donner un aperçu des deux TCC les plus couramment utilisées dans le traitement des troubles anxieux (thérapie cognitive et technique d'exposition) et de résumer et d'analyser la recherche empirique actuelle basée sur l'utilité de ces techniques pour chaque trouble anxieux. De plus, nous analysons les difficultés inhérentes à la comparaison entre des TCC actives et proposons des axes de recherche future. Globalement, les TCC semblent à la fois efficaces et efficientes dans le traitement des troubles anxieux mais des études détaillées sont nécessaires afin de déterminer quels éléments spécifiques du traitement donnent de bons résultats et quels patients sont le plus susceptibles d'en bénéficier.

          Empirically supported psychological interventions: controversies and evidence.

          Efforts to increase the practice of evidence-based psychotherapy in the United States have led to the formation of task forces to define, identify, and disseminate information about empirically supported psychological interventions. The work of several such task forces and other groups reviewing empirically supported treatments (ESTs) in the United States, United Kingdom, and elsewhere is summarized here, along with the lists of treatments that have been identified as ESTs. Also reviewed is the controversy surrounding EST identification and dissemination, including concerns abou research methodology, external validity, and utility of EST research, as well as the reliability and transparency of the EST review process.

              Cognitive factors that maintain social anxiety disorder: a comprehensive model and its treatment implications.

              Social anxiety disorder (SAD) is a common, distressing and persistent mental illness. Recent studies have identified a number of psychological factors that could explain the maintenance of the disorder. These factors are presented here as part of a comprehensive psychological maintenance model of SAD. This model assumes that social apprehension is associated with unrealistic social standards and a deficiency in selecting attainable social goals. When confronted with challenging social situations, individuals with SAD shift their attention toward their anxiety, view themselves negatively as a social object, overestimate the negative consequences of a social encounter, believe that they have little control over their emotional response, and view their social skills as inadequate to effectively cope with the social situation. In order to avoid social mishaps, individuals with SAD revert to maladaptive coping strategies, including avoidance and safety behaviors, followed by post-event rumination, which leads to further social apprehension in the future. Possible disorder-specific intervention strategies are discussed.
