Course Description: Studies have shown that internet-delivered cognitive behavior therapy (ICBT) is an effective treatment for anxiety and depression, but the factors that influence its effectiveness are not fully understood. The present study examined the predictors of dropout and symptom change in a community sample of adults receiving ICBT for anxiety and/or depression. The researchers found that dropout rates were higher among younger participants and among those with higher levels of initial distress. The researchers also found that self-reported symptom improvement was greater among individuals who were younger and exhibited more severe initial symptoms, as well as among those with characteristics such as being on disability, or not holding a university degree. The results have clinical implications for both referrals as well as treatments involving ICBT.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Understand the rationale for the study and the longitudinal methods used to gather data
  2. Describe the main findings of the study concerning predictors of dropout and symptom change
  3. Integrate the strengths and limitations of the study, and summarize the clinical implications for ICBT referrals and treatment
