Anxiety Clinical Trial - School Based Low-intensity Cognitive Behavioral

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The study will evaluate two group CBT interventions delivered by school health nurses, in cooperation with community psychologist and mental health care personnel, to adolescents with mild to moderate levels of anxiety symptoms. The two interventions have different intensity (5 versus 10 group meetings). The two group interventions will be compared to a waitlist control group.

Clinical Trial Description

Anxiety disorders are among the major mental health problems in children and adolescents, with regard to prevalence and long-term consequences. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) has proven to be effective as treatment, early intervention and prevention of youth anxiety disorders. The majority of youth with anxiety problems, however, is not in contact with mental health services and do not receive effective help. This is due to shortage of personnel, resources and time among mental health-personal delivering treatment, as well as health services not being easily accessable for adolescents. School-based, low-intensity early intervention programs (indicated prevention) may improve access to effective treatment for youth with internalizing problems, and also promote more effective use of health services. The present study is a multi-site randomized controlled study with early intervention to be conducted within the primary health care service in three parts of Norway; including nine municipalities from west, east and south of Norway. A brief CBT program will be compared to a longer CBT program, and a wait-list control group. The effects will be evaluated with regard to decrease in youth internalizing symptoms. The CBT interventions are given to adolescents with mild to moderate levels of anxiety symptoms. Interventions are delivered by trained school-health nurses in collaboration with and/or supervised by experienced CBT therapists. The study involves researchers from three research environments in Norway, and collaboration with prominent international researchers from USA and Australia.The study has potential impact on how to deliver effective low-threshold interventions to anxious youth. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
