Internet ‑Delivered Versus Face‑to‑Face Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Anxiety Disorders: Systematic Review and Meta‑Analysis

Conclusions: ICBT and face‑to‑face CBT created equivalent overall effects. in treatment of anxiety disorders. Since there have been similar systematic reviews about anxiety disorders so far, and in majority of them, ICBT has not been compared against face‑to‑face treatment. More research is needed to establish the general equivalence of the two treatment formats. Also, understanding what makes ICBT work is a challenge for future research.
