Evaluation of an Online-Based Self-Help Program for Patients With Panic Disorder: Randomized Controlled Trial
Overview
This randomized controlled trial evaluates a 12-week online self-help program combining psychoeducation, cognitive restructuring, exposure, and mindfulness for German-speaking adults with panic disorder and agoraphobia. The study reports that the intervention significantly reduced core panic and agoraphobia symptoms as well as anxiety and depression compared to usual care, though it did not significantly improve well-being or secondary outcomes like daily functioning. The resource is primarily of interest to researchers and clinicians reviewing evidence for internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy interventions.
