Evaluation of a Self-Monitoring Intervention to Reduce Safety Behavior in Social Anxiety

Social Anxiety Clinical Trial

Official title:
Evaluation of a Self-Monitoring Intervention to Reduce Safety Behaviors in Social Anxiety: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Clinical Trial Summary

The current study aims to explore the efficacy of a text message based Safety Behavior Fading Intervention compared to an active control intervention.

Clinical Trial Description

Safety behavior fading may be a viable standalone intervention for social anxiety. In the present trial, participants high in social anxiety will be randomized to either receive a daily checklist exercise aimed at eliminating (1) safety behaviors or (2) unhealthy behaviors. Individuals randomly assigned to the safety behavior fading condition will receive instructions to decrease or eliminate their four most habitual social anxiety safety behaviors. In addition, they will receive daily reminders via text message to decrease these behaviors, along with a safety behavior monitoring checklist in which the participant indicates the extent to which they decreased and/or eliminated each safety behavior over the previous day. Individuals randomly assigned to the control condition will receive similar text messages and a daily checklist to encourage fading of unhealthy behaviors. Participants in both conditions will complete checklists for 28 days. After day 14 of treatment, participants will re-select their target safety behaviors or unhealthy behaviors, and will then be prompted to reduce these new behaviors for another 14 days. ;
