- Research has consistently shown that exposure is the effective core component of CBT for youth with anxiety, OCD and PTSD. During exposure, children/youth approach that which they are most afraid of. However, we currently do not know how exposure works and which children/youth benefit from exposure. This project aims to identify mechanisms of action and individual predictors of exposure outcomes. The project consists of a re-analysis of existing data (amongst others an Individual Patient Data Meta-Analysis [IPDMA]) from international RCTs and other existing studies with the general aim to find out how exposure works for youth with anxiety on the macro
- and micro-level. The project consists of two studies: Study 1 is focused on finding out how treatment works at the macro-level and for whom by investigating working mechanisms and moderators on the individual level. Study 2 is focused on finding out how treatment works at the micro-level by zooming in on individual treatment trajectories during exposure-sessions. A full description of the project can be found here.**What are you going to do**- Your tasks as a Postdoctoral researcher within this ZonMw project (0.8FTE) will include the following:
