Family-based cognitive behavioral therapy versus family-based psychoeducation and relaxation training for obsessive-compulsive disorder in children and adolescents: a randomized clinical trial (TECTO)
Overview
This randomized clinical trial compares family-based cognitive behavioral therapy with exposure and response prevention against family-based psychoeducation and relaxation training for children and adolescents aged 8–17 with obsessive-compulsive disorder. The study reports that while the CBT group showed significantly greater symptom reduction than the control group, the difference was modest and fell below the predefined threshold for clinical importance. The resource details the trial's methodology, participant demographics, and adverse event monitoring to assess tolerability.
