A controlled evaluation of the 'FRIENDS for Life' emotional resiliency programme on overall anxiety levels, anxiety subtype levels and school adjustment.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Anxiety constitutes the most common form of psychopathology in childhood and adolescence. METHODS:This randomised controlled study evaluated the 'FRIENDS for Life' school-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy programme on overall anxiety, anxiety subtypes and school adjustment. Sixty-two students aged 12-13 completed measures of anxiety and school adjustment before, immediately after and 4 months after completing the programme. Parents and teachers also rated the students on overall anxiety levels and school adjustment respectively. RESULTS:The intervention group's 'overall anxiety' and specifically 'separation anxiety' reduced significantly during the programme and continued to decrease at the 4-month follow-up. CONCLUSIONS:A significant negative correlation was found between anxiety and school adjustment. The professional implications of these findings are discussed.
