Summary

BEHAVIORAL

Computerized Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

The c-CBT software focuses on the same principles of traditional CBT, namely, "identifying, labeling, and modifying automatic thoughts; the link between thought and action; identifying and modifying schemas; and identifying and correcting cognitive errors."9 C-CBT is delivered in 9 online lessons, each designed to take 30-45 minutes to complete. The software provides modeling of CBT principles (in the form of short videos), enables an interactive forum by giving users feedback based on responses to questions, and encourages participants to employ the skills learned in CBT to their situations. A 9-minute video demonstrating the functionality of Good Days Ahead can be found at: http://www.empower-interactive.com/solutions/good-days-ahead/.
