Social well-being moderates behavioral therapy response for generalized anxiety disorder
Overview
This secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial examines how baseline social well-being influences outcomes for behavioral activation (BA) versus exposure-based therapy (EXP) in individuals with generalized anxiety disorder. The study, involving 69 participants, found that lower social support and higher isolation or loneliness moderated treatment response, with these factors predicting better results for BA but poorer results for EXP. The authors suggest that addressing social well-being may be beneficial for clients with high isolation or low support who undergo exposure-based therapy.
