“…16 Review studies suggest that cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is a provably efficient psychological treatment for ADCA. [17][18][19][20][21] Although no comparative studies exist on the efficacy of different cognitive-behavioral techniques for the treatment of anxiety disorders in this specific age group, treatments that combine CBT with target symptoms (e.g. : relaxation in predominantly tense children and exposure in children with phobias) are more efficient than those that randomly use a collection of techniques.…”

Objective: This article reviews the clinical and epidemiological aspects of anxiety disorders in youngsters, as well as current medical and psychological treatment strategies. The role of the neurobiological models possibly involved in the etiology of these disorders is also discussed.Sources of data: MEDLINE search of papers published in English from 1981 to 2003. The following key words were used: anxiety disorders, neurobiology, childhood, adolescence.Summary of the findings: Childhood-onset anxiety disorders are among the most frequent psychiatric conditions in children and adolescents. Epidemiological data estimate a prevalence of 10% in this population. The neurobiological models involved in the etiology of anxiety disorders in youngsters are closely related to neuroimaging studies with individuals presenting these pathologies. The role of the amygdala in the pathophysiology of these disorders is underscored. To be effective, treatment must combine several interventions, such as cognitive-behavioral, family, and, frequently, drug treatments.Conclusions: Early identification and prompt treatment of anxiety disorders may prevent negative consequences, such as school absenteeism and frequent and unnecessary visits to pediatric services due to somatic complaints related to anxiety disorders. Moreover, it is possible that psychiatric problems could be avoided or attenuated in adulthood.J Pediatr (Rio J). 2004;80(2 Suppl):S28-S34: Anxiety disorders, childhood, adolescence, neurobiology, psychopharmacology, cognitive-behavioral therapy.

“…Effect-size calculation and coding of the studies were carried out independently to avoid contamination. After training in the use of the coding system, four coders (i.e., four of the authors [two graduate students, one postdoctoral fellow, and one faculty member]) independently 1 One exception to this generalization was a meta-analysis by Durlak, Fuhrman, and Lampman (1991), which focused on the effects of cognitive-behavioral interventions with children. Durlak et al used a weighted least squares (WLS) group partitioning approach described by Hedges and Olkin (1985).…”

A meta-analysis of child and adolescent psychotherapy outcome research tested previous findings using a new sample of 150 outcome studies and weighted least squares methods. The overall mean effect of therapy was positive and highly significant. Effects were more positive for behavioral than for nonbehavioral treatments, and samples of adolescent girls showed better outcomes than other Age X Gender groups. Paraprofessionals produced larger overall treatment effects than professional therapists or students, but professionals produced larger effects than paraprofessionals in treating overcontrolled problems (e.g., anxiety and depression). Results supported the specificity of treatment effects: Outcomes were stronger for the particular problems targeted in treatment than for problems not targeted. The findings shed new light on previous results and raise significant issues for future study.Over the past decade, applications of the technique known as meta-analysis (see Cooper & Hedges, 1994;Mann, 1990;Smith, Glass, & Miller, 1980) have enriched our understanding of the impact of psychotherapy with children and adolescents (herein referred to collectively as "children"). At least three general meta-analyses encompassing diverse treatment methods and diverse child problems have indicated that the overall impact of child psychotherapy is positive, with effect sizes averaging not far below Cohen's (1988) threshold of 0.80 for a "large" effect. Casey and Herman (1985) reported a mean effect size of 0.71 for a collection of treatment outcome studies with children 12 years of age and younger (studies published from . Weisz, Weiss, Alicke, and Klotz (1987) We are grateful to Danika Kauneckis and Julie Mosk for their help with various phases of the project. We also thank the outcome study authors who provided us with information needed to calculate effectsize values for this meta-analysis.

“…One of the main components of SIT is self-instructional training (Meichenbaum, 1975), which guides peoples' behavior through self-talk, which gradually becomes self-generated and habitual. Self-instructional training has shown to be effective in the control of impulsive behavior (Durlak, Fuhrman, & Lampman, 1991) related to attention deficit (Spence, 2003). Asnaani, Vonk, Sawyer, & Fang, 2012).…”

Esta es la versión de autor del artículo publicado en: This is an author produced version of a paper published in:Physical Therapy in Sport 24 (2017) Effectiveness of a stress management pilot program aimed at reducing the incidence of sports injuries in young football (soccer) players ABSTRACT Objectives: Several attempts to reduce the incidence of sport injuries using psychosocial interventions produced fruitful, although inconclusive results. This paper presents the effectiveness and implementation issues of a pilot 3-month stress-management and muscle relaxation program aimed at reducing sport injury incidence.Design: Pre-post treatment-non treatment group comparison.Program administration: The program was administered by a trained psychologist on a once-a-week, one-hour session basis.Participants: Seventy-four male soccer players from four National Youth league teams voluntarily participated. Teams were randomly assigned to either treatment/ non-treatment group.Measures: Injury protocol, Self-monitoring cards, Athletes' satisfaction and commitment survey, Coaches' interview.Results: Group main effect and Time-Group interaction effect were both statistically significant, F(1,60) = 8.30, p = .005,  2 p = .121, with the average number of injuries larger in the post-treatment phase of Non-treatment group (p = .005,  2 p = .077).There was a significant decrease in the average number of injuries for the RUNNING HEAD: A PILOT STRESS-MANAGEMENT PROGRAM TO REDUCE SPORT INJURIES 2 intervention group before and after implementing the program (p < .001,  2 p = .309).Conclusions: A controlled implementation of a psychosocial program was effective in reducing youth soccer sport injuries, with a high level of satisfaction and commitment from the athletes, as well as high acceptance from the coaches.
