Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Training involves presenting participants with brief scenarios that introduce an ambiguous potential threat. Critically, the ambiguity regarding how the situation is resolved remains until the last word of the scenario, which is presented as a word fragment that the participant must solve, which will typically then assign a benign (rather than threatening) meaning to the scenario.
Participants identified as high risk for attrition will receive low-intensity coaching, which includes a mix of brief phone calls, texts, and/or emails with a trained member of the study team to help address challenges with adherence to and application of the training.
Participants will review webpages that describe information about symptoms and causes of anxiety, including the nature of biased thinking in anxiety.
