Moderators and Mediators of Treatments for Youth With Anxiety
Abstract
Although research supports the efficacy of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for youth anxiety, CBT does not provide the same benefit for all youth. Identifying moderators and mediators of treatment outcome can provide important information regarding how to best treat youth with anxiety. This chapter examines non-specific predictors and moderators of treatment outcome, including baseline diagnoses, symptom severity, and characteristics of the youth, caregiver, and therapist. It also reviews candidate mediators of CBT for youth anxiety, including cognitive, behavioral, and affective change. Information in this chapter provides clinicians with a guide for matching patients to treatments that provide the most benefit and for targeting key mechanisms of therapeutic change.

In the citing paper
“Findings often reveal either no significant moderators or a meager number that fail to replicate, including in evaluative reviews and meta-analyses (e.g., Bennett et al., 2013; Herres et al., 2015; Nilsen et al., 2013; Norris & Kendall, 2020).”

In the citing paper
“The relatively weak and inconsistent support for the role of parents in CBT suggests that the model does not target important mechanisms impacting treatment outcome (29, 30).”

“Given the absence of past data on parent/family mechanisms/mediators and the frequent calls for such data (e.g., Creswell et al., 2020; Herres et al., 2015; Manassis et al., 2014; Peris et al., 2021; Sun et al., 2018; Thulin et al., 2014), our findings acquire even further significance.”

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.
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.
