Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted extensive disruptions to the daily lives of children and adolescents worldwide, which has been associated with an increase in anxiety and depressive symptoms in youth. However, due to public health measures, in-person psychosocial care was initially reduced, causing barriers to mental health care access. This study investigated the feasibility, acceptability and preliminary effectiveness of iCOPE with COVID-19, a brief telemental health intervention for children and adolescents to address anxiety symptoms. Sessions were provided exclusively using videoconferencing technology. Feasibility and acceptability were measured with client satisfaction data. The main outcome measure for effectiveness was anxiety symptom severity measured using the Screen for Child Anxiety and Related Disorders (SCARED). Results indicated that the treatment was well accepted by participants. Significant reductions in anxiety were noted for social anxiety, and were observed to be trending towards a mean decrease for total anxiety. The findings suggest that this brief telemental health intervention focused on reducing anxiety related to COVID-19 is acceptable and feasible to children and adolescents. Future research using a large sample and with a longer follow-up period could inform whether symptom decreases are sustained over time.

iCOPE与COVID-19: COVID-19大流行期间儿童和青少年的简短远程心理健康干预
新冠肺炎大流行对世界各地儿童和青少年的日常生活造成了广泛干扰,这与青少年焦虑和抑郁症状的增加有关。然而,由于采取了公共卫生措施,最初减少了面对面的心理社会护理,这给获得心理健康护理造成了障碍。本研究调查了iCOPE治疗新冠肺炎的可行性、可接受性和初步有效性,这是一种针对儿童和青少年解决焦虑症状的简短远程心理健康干预措施。会议完全采用视频会议技术。可行性和可接受性是用客户满意度数据来衡量的。有效性的主要结果衡量标准是使用儿童焦虑和相关障碍筛查(SCARED)测量的焦虑症状严重程度。结果表明,该治疗被参与者很好地接受。社交焦虑显著降低,总体焦虑呈平均下降趋势。研究结果表明,这种专注于减少与新冠肺炎相关焦虑的简短远程心理健康干预对儿童和青少年来说是可接受和可行的。未来使用大样本和更长随访期的研究可以告知症状是否会随着时间的推移而持续下降。

期刊介绍: Cognitive and Behavioral Practice is a quarterly international journal that serves an enduring resource for empirically informed methods of clinical practice. Its mission is to bridge the gap between published research and the actual clinical practice of cognitive behavior therapy. Cognitive and Behavioral Practice publishes clinically rich accounts of innovative assessment and diagnostic and therapeutic procedures that are clearly grounded in empirical research. A focus on application and implementation of procedures is maintained.
