“…Nonetheless, future studies with larger sample sizes should examine whether ABBTs and other treatments account for changes in unique variance in each of these measures. We also did not assess all of the available cognitive-behavioral theories of GAD, such as the interpersonal processes highlighted by Borkovec, Newman, and Castonguay (2003), and the cognitive model outlined by Wells (1999). In addition, the measures used in the current may not represent a complete assessment of the various models, and there may be other important contributing and maintaining factors in these models that may have gone unassessed.…”

Acceptance-based behavioral therapy for GAD: effects on outcomes from three theoretical models

et al. 2010

Although cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is efficacious in the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), many individuals remain symptomatic following treatment, indicating a need for further treatment development. As a result, many researchers have developed unique cognitive-behavioral therapies that highlight specific targets for intervention. The current study examined the effect of an acceptance-based behavioral therapy for GAD on the proposed targets for intervention highlighted in several of these theoretical models: emotion regulation difficulties, intolerance of uncertainty, and low perceptions of control. Clients were randomly assigned to immediate (n = 15) or delayed (n = 16) treatment. Individuals treated with the acceptance-based behavioral therapy reported significantly fewer difficulties in emotion regulation and fear of emotional responses, as well as greater tolerance of uncertainty and perceived control over anxiety than individuals in the waitlist control condition. In addition, these effects were maintained at 3- and 9-month follow-up assessments.

A randomized controlled trial of cognitive-behavior therapy for Cambodian refugees with treatment-resistant PTSD and panic attacks: A cross-over design

et al. 2005

We examined the therapeutic efficacy of a culturally adapted cognitive-behavior therapy for Cambodian refugees with treatment-resistant posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and comordid panic attacks. We used a cross-over design, with 20 patients in the initial treatment (IT) condition and 20 in delayed treatment (DT). Repeated measures MANOVA, Group & times; Time ANOVAs, and planned contrasts indicated significantly greater improvement in the IT condition, with large effect sizes (Cohen's d) for all outcome measures: Anxiety Sensitivity Index (d = 3.78), Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale (d = 2.17), and Symptom Checklist 90-R subscales (d = 2.77). Likewise, the severity of (culturally related) neck-focused and orthostasis-cued panic attacks, including flashbacks associated with these subtypes, improved across treatment.

“…It has been the most extensively studied treatment for GAD (Borkovec, Newman, & Castonguay, 2003), and is still considered by many as the "first line" psychosocial treatment (Erickson & Newman, 2005). According to Durham and Fisher (2007), there have been more than 30 clinical trials (1/2 used DSM criteria) and CBT was the main focus.…”

“…Borkovec, one of the leading experts in the world on psychosocial treatments for GAD, has been a growing proponent for integrative therapy of this disorder. In a review article of CBT findings to date, Borkovec et al (2003) began to outline what an integrative approach would look like in theory and practice (CBT with integrations from interpersonal and experiential therapies). This paper summarizes the components (i.e., self-monitoring, relaxation training, CT, rehearsal of coping responses, scheduling of pleasant activities, stimulus control techniques, establishing a brief worry period, reducing intolerance of uncertainty) used in their CBT model.…”
