Summary

This study tested a computer program designed to train attention away from threatening faces in 206 youths aged 10-14 with social anxiety disorder. Half received the active training (ABMT) and half a neutral task. The goal was to see if the training could reduce anxiety and change brain responses measured by EEG.
