Psychosocial treatment prescriptions for generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and social phobia, 1991-1996

Goisman, Robert M., Warshaw, Meredith G., Keller, Martin B.·1999·American Journal of Psychiatry

Abstract

Objective Pharmacologic prescriptions for anxiety disorders have changed significantly in the last decade. This article investigates whether psychosocial treatments, as reported by 362 subjects in the Harvard/Brown Anxiety Disorders Research Program from 1991 to 1996, changed as well. Method Subjects were interviewed in 1991 and 1995-1996 to determine which psychosocial treatments (behavioral, cognitive, dynamic, or relaxation or meditation) they had received. Results The percentage of subjects who received each type of psychosocial treatment either declined or remained the same from 1991 to 1995-1996. Dynamic psychotherapy remained the most frequently used method of these four. The percentage of subjects receiving any such method declined. Conclusions Behavioral and cognitive treatment, two empirically validated forms of psychotherapy, were less frequently used than dynamic psychotherapy, which lacks such validation. All use of verbal treatment methods declined from 1991 to 1995-1996.

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.
