摘要: Muscle relaxation therapy assumes that generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) patients lack the ability to relax but can learn this in therapy. We tested by randomizing 49 GAD 12 weeks of Applied Relaxation (AR) or waiting. Before, during, and after treatment participants underwent tests. Before treatment, were more worried than healthy controls (n=21) had higher heart rates lower end-tidal pCO2, not muscle tension (A. Conrad, L. Isaac, & W.T. Roth, 2008). AR resulted greater symptomatic improvement However, 28% group dropped out some relapsed at 6-week follow-up. There was little evidence learned a reduction associated with decrease activation. conclude clinical effects improving symptoms are moderate most cannot be attributed reducing autonomic
