Is breathing control an effective coping strategy for public speaking anxiety?Hait, Aaron Vincent January 1991 (has links)
Two studies were conducted to determine whether controlled, abdominally-predominant breathing could be accurately implemented during periods of acute anxiety by speech anxious/phobic individuals, and what effect breathing control has on autonomic and subjective indices of anxiety. Twenty-two moderately speech anxious young adults took part in Study 1. The results of this study indicated that after two weeks of training, only 50% of trainees were able to implement the controlled breathing technique with any degree of accuracy while waiting to deliver an impromptu speech before a small audience. No one were successful at reliably implementing the technique during the speech itself. As in previous research, training had little impact on autonomic arousal but was associated with improvements in self-reported anxiety. Similar findings emerged for Study 2, which differed from Study 1 in that it involved a larger (N = 48) and more highly speech anxious sample who participated in a longer (4-week), more intensive training program. Although training had little effect on subjective or autonomic arousal during speech anticipation and speech delivery, it did result in significantly higher predictions of speech aptitude and emotional control relative to no treatment. Such findings suggest that breathing control is not a useful emotion-focused coping strategy on its own, but may add to the effectiveness of exposure-based therapies by enhancing patients' self-efficacy and willingness to expose themselves to feared situations. / Arts, Faculty of / Psychology, Department of / Graduate

Cognitive-behavioral therapy efficacy via videoconferencing for social (public speaking) anxiety disorder : a single case designPelletier, Marie-Helene 11 1900 (has links)
Social (public speaking) anxiety disorder is the most prevalent of all anxiety
disorders, and it often impairs social and occupational functioning. Intervention studies
indicate that cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is an efficacious treatment for social
anxiety. However, access to therapists skilled in CBT for social anxiety is often difficult.
In order to respond to the problem of access, the use of videoconferencing for mental
health care has developed. No published study has investigated the efficacy of CBT for
social anxiety when provided via videoconferencing.
The purpose of this study, therefore, was to determine the efficacy of CBT for
social anxiety when provided via videoconferencing. A single-case replication design
was employed that included a baseline period of 3 weeks, followed by 12 weeks of .
treatment, 1-week post-intervention period, and 3-month follow-up. Five participants
completed treatment. It was hypothesized that participants would reduce their social
anxiety symptoms (i.e., decrease anxiety during speech task, increase duration of speech
task, and decrease public speaking anxiety) assessed on standardized measures of social
anxiety. Exploratory analyses of changes in self-monitored social anxiety, negative
cognitions (public self-consciousness, fear of negative evaluation, internal attributions),
working alliance, client satisfaction with treatment, and client comfort with
videoconferencing were also performed. Analyses included visual and statistical
significance, as well as clinical significance (i.e., endstate functioning, social phobia
diagnostic status).
The results indicated that two of three hypotheses were supported (i.e., anxiety
during speech task reduced and duration of speech task increased over time). At 3-month
follow-up, treatment gains were maintained or improved further; 3 participants no longer
met the DSM-IV-TR criteria for social anxiety disorder, and 4 participants met criteria
for moderate or high level of endstate functioning (i.e., clinical significance). Exploratory
analyses revealed that self-monitored social anxiety decreased for 3 of 5 participants, and
that a decrease in negative cognitions was associated with a decrease in social anxiety.
Working alliance ratings remained high throughout treatment. Satisfaction with
videoconferencing decreased over treatment for the participant who did not improve.
Generally, comfort with videoconferencing increased over time. The results offer
preliminary support for further research about the efficacy of the intervention.

An assessment of curricular methods to reduce communication apprehension among public speaking studentsKemper, Matthew Thomas 01 January 2007 (has links)
This study investigated curricular methods to reduce communication apprehension among public speaking students. Previous research has found many intervention strategies to be successful in reducing levels of communication apprehension, including both visualization and cognitive restructuring. However, prior research has failed to examine the efficacy of such techniques within the context of teaching a public speaking course that has limited time to devote to these techniques. Consequently, an experiment was conducted which examined whether a one hour instructional unit using cognitive restructuring and visualization can reduce levels of communication apprehension among public speaking students. The results of the study indicate that a one hour instructional unit does not reduce the anxiety of high communication apprehensive students in a public speaking course.
