Abstract

This study developed and evaluated a brief, single-session online intervention designed to facilitate treatment seeking among adults with clinically significant social anxiety (SA) symptoms, who generally seek treatment at exceptionally low rates. Adults (N = 267) reporting significant SA symptoms were recruited online and randomized to a brief, single-session online intervention: Education consisted of brief psychoeducation and treatment resources, or Education+Motivation which added treatment seeking-focused motivational content adapted from Motivational Interviewing and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Attitudes, intentions, perceived control, and treatment seeking were assessed at Pre, Post, and 1-month follow-up (FU). Both interventions were feasible (90% completion) and improved all outcomes. At FU, 70% reported engaging in one or more SA treatment-seeking behaviors. Education+Motivation was more effective than Education at improving treatment-seeking attitudes and behaviors. A brief online intervention with educational and motivational content is a promising direction for promoting treatment seeking for adults with SA symptoms.

一项简短的在线干预促进寻求社交焦虑治疗的随机试验。

本研究开发并评估了一种简短的、单次在线干预，旨在促进具有临床显著社交焦虑(SA)症状的成年人寻求治疗，这些人通常以极低的比率寻求治疗。在线招募报告显著SA症状的成人(N = 267)，并随机分配到简短的单次在线干预:教育包括简短的心理教育和治疗资源，或教育+动机，增加以治疗寻求为重点的动机内容，改编自动机访谈和接受与承诺治疗。在随访前、后和1个月时评估态度、意图、感知控制和寻求治疗。两种干预措施都是可行的(90%的完成率)，并改善了所有结果。在FU, 70%的人报告有一种或多种寻求SA治疗的行为。在改善寻求治疗的态度和行为方面，教育+动机比教育更有效。一个简短的在线干预与教育和动机的内容是一个有希望的方向，促进治疗寻求成人SA症状。

期刊介绍： For two decades, researchers and practitioners have turned to Behavior Modification for current scholarship on applied behavior modification. Starting in 1995, in addition to keeping you informed on assessment and modification techniques relevant to psychiatric, clinical, education, and rehabilitation settings, Behavior Modification revised and expanded its focus to include treatment manuals and program descriptions. With these features you can follow the process of clinical research and see how it can be applied to your own work. And, with Behavior Modification, successful clinical and administrative experts have an outlet for sharing their solutions in the field.
