Research on Anxiety and Depression:
Computer-Assisted Therapy (RAD-CAT)
The RAD-CAT Project is an adjunct to the RAD Project.
The purpose of this study is to examine how online self-guided programs can improve mood and anxiety symptoms.
These programs use exercises from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, which is an evidence-based treatment for depressive and anxiety disorders.
We are hoping to figure out who is best suited for this type of online self-guided format and what kinds of symptoms improve the most.
We are grateful to The One Mind Institute, a non-profit organization devoted to funding cures for brain illnesses, which is providing financial support for the study.
