Abstract

In an RCT of CBT and ACT for Social Anxiety Disorder, symptom reduction corresponded with strengthened inverse functional connectivity between the left amygdala-to-vmPFC and right amygdala-to-vlPFC (Young et al., 2017). The current study investigates whether treatment-related changes in functional connectivity during emotion regulation predict follow-up outcomes one year after treatment.
