Generic and disorder-specific, internet-delivered, CBT for youth SAD reduced social anxiety more than a wait list control. Generic and disorder-specific CBT for youth SAD had equivalent treatment effects. Despite significant improvements, the majority of youth in both conditions continued to meet diagnostic criteria for SAD. The results are consistent with other studies showing the challenges of treating SAD in young people. Post-event processing mediated changes in social anxiety suggesting it may be an underlying mechanism of change.
