Group CBT versus MBSR for social anxiety disorder: A randomized controlled trial.
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study was to investigate treatment outcome and mediators of cognitive-behavioral group therapy (CBGT) versus mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) versus waitlist (WL) in patients with generalized social anxiety disorder (SAD). METHOD: One hundred eight unmedicated patients (55.6% female; mean age = 32.7 years, SD = 8.0; 43.5% Caucasian, 39% Asian, 9.3% Hispanic, 8.3% other) were randomized to CBGT versus MBSR versus WL and completed assessments at baseline, posttreatment/WL, and at 1-year follow-up, including the Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale-Self-Report (primary outcome; Liebowitz, 1987) as well as measures of treatment-related processes. RESULTS: Linear mixed model analysis showed that CBGT and MBSR both produced greater improvements on most measures compared with WL. Both treatments yielded similar improvements in social anxiety symptoms, cognitive reappraisal frequency and self-efficacy, cognitive distortions, mindfulness skills, attention focusing, and rumination. There were greater decreases in subtle avoidance behaviors following CBGT than MBSR. Mediation analyses revealed that increases in reappraisal frequency, mindfulness skills, attention focusing, and attention shifting, and decreases in subtle avoidance behaviors and cognitive distortions, mediated the impact of both CBGT and MBSR on social anxiety symptoms. However, increases in reappraisal self-efficacy and decreases in avoidance behaviors mediated the impact of CBGT (vs. MBSR) on social anxiety symptoms. CONCLUSIONS: CBGT and MBSR both appear to be efficacious for SAD. However, their effects may be a result of both shared and unique changes in underlying psychological processes.

“a recent meta-analysis (Hofmann, Sawyer, Witt, & Oh, 2010) showed that mindfulness-based interventions reliably reduced anxiety symptoms across a variety of psychiatric and medical populations (Hedges's g = 0.63), and even more so in the subgroup of patients with anxiety and mood disorders (g = 0.97).”

The Introduction (page not available in our copy) says that research has found the LSAS-SR’s psychometric properties to be sound and reports high correlations with the clinician-administered scale. The Discussion also reports that the LSAS-SR distinguished patients with social anxiety disorder from nonanxious controls. Together, these support the broad claim about reliability and construct validity, although this paper does not report separate estimates for each. (LLM, conf=0.86)

The Results report that change in mindfulness mediated the effect of MBSR on anxiety when tested alone, and the Discussion reports that mindfulness mediated reductions in worry in patients with GAD. In the joint mediation model, however, decentering—not mindfulness—significantly mediated anxiety reduction. The MBCT and broader clinical-sample portion of the citing sentence is attributed to Gu et al., not Hoge et al. (LLM, conf=0.89)

The paper relies on this without support.
The CBGT and MBSR treatments were delivered with adequate fidelity to their respective protocols.
“Cognitive behavioral group therapy (CBGT) was delivered by two Ph.D. clinical psychologists trained by Dr. Richard Heimberg to implement his CBGT for SAD protocol (Heimberg & Becker, 2002).”
The paper relies on this without support.
The sample of patients with generalized SAD is representative of the broader SAD population.
“108 unmedicated patients (55.6% female; mean age = 32.7, SD = 8.0; 43.5% Caucasian, 39% Asian, 9.3% Hispanic, 8.3% other) were randomized to CBGT vs. MBSR vs. WL”
The paper relies on this without support.
CBT openly addresses avoidance and trains patients to confront feared situations through exposures.
“CBT explicitly discusses the role of avoidance, as well as trains patients to counter avoidance by engaging in and vicariously learning from multiple exposures to feared situations.”
The paper relies on this without support.
MBSR does not directly target safety behaviors or avoidance behaviors.
“Unlike CBT, MBSR does not explicitly address safety behaviors and specifically avoidance behaviors.”
The paper relies on this without support.
Community MBSR groups tend to be larger and include people with a wider range of presenting problems.
“Furthermore, community-based MBSR groups are typically larger and include individuals with a more diverse set of presenting problems.”
The paper relies on this without support.
The demographic diversity of the sample is enough to make the results highly generalizable to adults with SAD.
“Thus, these results are highly generalizable.”

Percentages, sums and reported differences re-computed from the paper’s own numbers.
Each contradiction between two passages listed here was confirmed by an independent check.
Rated minor: it would not touch a result — a value no result rests on, a p-value that stays on the same side of the significance level, or a conflict that is clerical, resolved elsewhere in the paper, or outside its own findings.

§ Group CBT versus MBSR for Social Anxiety Disorder: A Randomized Controlled Trial > Method > Adherence and Treatment Completer Status
“Mean number of sessions attended for CBGT (Mean ± SD = 10.47 ± 1.56) and MBSR (10.37 ± 2.09) were not significantly different, t(71) = 0.22, p = .82.”
§ Group CBT versus MBSR for Social Anxiety Disorder: A Randomized Controlled Trial > Method > Participants
“the remaining 108 patients were randomly assigned to CBGT (n = 36), MBSR (n = 36), or WL (n = 36).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-09-28, under version 3 of the claim definition (prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-09-28 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
