Brief Summary: This study will compare the effectiveness of family- and peer-oriented therapy in treating children with anxiety disorders and will also test for therapy specificity effects and potential mediators of outcome
Detailed Description: Data suggest that individual Cognitive Behavior Therapy CBT is effective in reducing anxiety disorders in children The incorporation of parents and peers in a CBT treatment program also has been found to be effective in reducing anxiety symptoms because a childs environment ie parents peers affect the development course and outcome of childhood anxiety and functional status Children and their parents will be randomly assigned to one of two treatment conditions FamilyParents CBT FCBT or PeerGroup CBT GCBT for 14 to 16 weekly sessions Parent-child relationships are the focus of FCBT Parents will be trained to manage their childrens anxiety and avoidant behaviors by increasing acceptance and warmth toward their children Children in the GCBT group will be trained to be more helpful and positive toward other children through role-playing activities Interviews questionnaires and behavior observation tasks will be used to assess participants All participants will be assessed at pretreatment post-treatment and at yearly follow-up visits The first set of hypotheses that will be tested is that FCBT will produce significantly greater specific effects on parenting skills and parent-child relationships than on child social skills and peer-child relationships GCBT on the other hand will produce significantly greater specific effects on child social skills and peer-child relationships than on parenting skills and parent-child relationships The second set of hypotheses will test whether or not it is the changes that are produced on these variables that mediate treatment response Thus the second set of hypotheses that will be tested is that parenting skills parent-child relationships child social skills andor peer-child relationships will be significant mediators of treatment response ie anxiety reduction
