Registered outcomes7

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryLiebowitz Social Anxiety Scale (LSAS)Change measured from Week 12 to Week 28
The LSAS is a 24-item clinician-administered measure, which provides 0-3 ratings for anxiety and avoidance of social and performance situations. Anxiety and avoidance ratings are summed across items, yielding a range of scores from 0-144, with higher scores representing greater severity of social anxiety symptoms. We examined amount of change from week 12 to week 28 as the primary outcome. Change was calculated as Week 12 score minus Week 28 score, so a positive score equals greater positive change.
SecondaryClinical Global Impression Improvement Scale (CGI-I)Responder and remitter status measured at Week 28
The CGI-I is a 7-point clinician-administered scale measuring improvement in symptoms over time. Lower numbers represent greater improvement. We examined responder status (i.e., percent of patients receiving an endpoint, Week 28, rating of 1 or 2) as well as remission status (i.e., percent of patients receiving an endpoint, Week 28, rating of 1) as secondary outcomes.
SecondarySocial Interaction Anxiety Scale (SIAS)Change measured from Week 12 to Week 28
The SIAS is a 20-item self-report measure of anxiety experienced while interacting in dyads or groups. Items are rated on a 0-4 scale, yielding a range of scores from 0-80, with higher scores representing greater anxiety. We examined amount of change at from week 12 to week 28 as a secondary outcome. Change was calculated as Week 12 score minus Week 28 score, so a positive score equals greater positive change.
SecondarySocial Phobia Scale (SPS)Change measured from Week 12 to Week 28
The SPS is a 20-item self-report measure of anxiety experienced when being observed by others. Items are rated on a 0-4 scale, yielding a range of scores from 0-80, with higher scores representing greater anxiety. We examined amount of change at from week 12 to week 28 as a secondary outcome. Change was calculated as Week 12 score minus Week 28 score, so a positive score equals greater positive change.
SecondaryBrief Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale (BFNE)Change measured from Week 12 to Week 28
The BFNE is a 12-item self-report measure of concern about negative evaluation by others. Items are rated on a 1-5 scale, yielding scores ranging from 12-60, with higher scores indicating greater fear of negative evaluation. We examined amount of change at from week 12 to week 28 as a secondary outcome. Change was calculated as Week 12 score minus Week 28 score, so a positive score equals greater positive change.
SecondaryLiebowitz Self-Report Disability Scale (LSRDS)Change measured from Week 12 to Week 28
The LSRDS is an 11-item self-report measure of the degree to which one's emotional problems limit one's ability to function in a variety of domains. Items are rated on a 0-3 scale of severity, and 10 of the 11 items (choosing either school or work as one area and omitting the other) are summed to produce a total score, ranging from 0-30. Higher scores represent greater disability. We examined amount of change at from week 12 to week 28 as a secondary outcome. Change was calculated as Week 12 score minus Week 28 score, so a positive score equals greater positive change.
SecondaryQuality of Life Inventory (QOLI)Change measured from Week 12 to Week 28
The QOLI is a 16-item self-report measure of life satisfaction. Each item is rated for importance (0-2) and satisfaction (-3 to +3), and these ratings are multiplied, summed, and divided by the number of non-zero entries to yield an average item score, which can range from -6 to +6. We examined amount of change at from week 12 to week 28 as a secondary outcome. Change was calculated as Week 12 score minus Week 28 score, so a positive score equals greater positive change.
