Arousal Training for Social Anxiety Disorder

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The primary objective of the study is to examine the safety, usability and preliminary efficacy of a novel arousal-based biofeedback system in alleviating social anxiety. The investigators hypothesize that after 4 weeks of hour-long interventions, participants will show reductions pre- and post-intervention in their Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale scores.

Clinical Trial Description

The investigators plan to conduct a waitlist control trial.

Intervention consists of a combination of computerized cognitive behavioral therapy and arousal-based Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy. During the latter component, the physiological variables of participants, such as pulse rate and EEG, will be continuously monitored and presented as feedback to them. Participants will have to deliver speeches to videotaped audiences while striving to regulate their physiological arousal. ;
