Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cognitive-behavioral analysis psychotherapy system on attention bias in female high school students with symptoms of social anxiety. The research design was a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest with a control group. The statistical population of the study included all female students with social anxiety in the first high school of Khorramabad in the academic year 2019-2020. The sample size consisted of 30 people who were randomly selected and assigned to experimental and control groups. Participants in both groups completed the Attention Bias Questionnaire as a pre-test. Then, the cognitive-behavioral analysis psychotherapy system was performed for 11 sessions of 70 minutes for the experimental group. Multivariate and univariate analysis of covariance were used to analyze the data. The results showed that the cognitive-behavioral analysis psychotherapy system was significantly effective on the attention orientation of adolescents with symptoms of social anxiety. It is recommended that counselors and psychotherapists use this treatment to improve the symptoms of adolescent social anxiety.
