In a large naturalistic sample (n = 3552), ERP delivered via video and supported by an app in between sessions resulted in large reductions on the dimensional Y-BOCS (g = 1.0 [95% CI 0.93 to 1.03]) [@feusner2022]
Key takeaways
- Naturalistic sample from the nOCD app, n = 3552
- Three weeks of twice-weekly video sessions (á 30 min), then 6 weeks of once-weekly video sessions. Average 10.6 therapist hours.
- In between sessions they had text messaging support from therapist
- They used app in between video sessions
- 43.4% reduction in OCD symptoms (Dimensional Y-BOCS g = 1.0 [95% CI 0.93 to 1.03])
- 63% response rate
Why have all this extra video support? I would have expected it to be mostly or only the nOCD app, but here it’s just videotherapy with app in between.
