Randomized Controlled Trial of Spanish Brief Group Neuroscience-Informed Cognitive-Behavior Therapy for Anxiety

Sponsor: Oregon State University

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a brief neuroscience-informed cognitive-behavior therapy (nCBT) group intervention works to reduce anxiety for Spanish-speaking Latino/a adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: * To what extent does group neuroeducation on the nCBT Waves Model reduce anxiety compared to a waitlist condition? * To what extent does group neurooeducation on the nCBT Waves Model enhance body awareness and self-compassion compared to a waitlist condition? * To what extent is anxiety reduction predicted by enhancements in body awareness and self-compassion, alongside the working alliance and credibility/expectancy? Researchers will compare outcomes for the brief nCBT group intervention to a waitlist control condition to see if the intervention results in superior anxiety reduction compared to the effect of time. Participants will: * Attend three weekly psychoeducational group sessions. * Complete homework assignments following group meetings such as tracking anxiety symptoms at home. * Complete questionnaires about anxiety as well as body awareness, self-compassion, the therapeutic relationship, and participant perceptions of the intervention's credibility and belief in a positive outcome.
