Efficacy of the Chinese version interpretation bias modification training in an unselected sample: A randomized trial.

Training individuals to interpret ambiguous information in positive ways might be an effective method of reducing social anxiety. However, little research had been carried out in Chinese samples, and the effect of interpretation training on other processes such as attentional bias also remained uncl...

This study examined the effect of interpretation bias modification program (IMP) on interpretation bias, social anxiety and attentional bias, and the possible mediation effects. 51 healthy adults were randomly assigned to either a 5-session IMP training that guided them to endorse benign interpretation in ambiguous scenarios or an interpretation control condition (ICC).

IMP yielded greater interpretation bias reduction (F(1,49) = 12.84, p<0.01, ηp2 = 0.21) and social anxiety reduction (F(1,49) = 21.39, p<0.01, ηp2 = 0.30) than ICC, but change in attentional bias was not significant between IMP and the control group.
