This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing two different internet-based therapy programs for generalized anxiety disorder (a condition involving persistent worry and anxiety). Half of the participants will get to read about both programs and choose which one they prefer, while the other half will be randomly assigned to one. Researchers want to see whether people do better when they get to choose their treatment, or when a psychologist matches them to the treatment they think will work best for them.
Many people with anxiety benefit from online therapy, but we don't know yet whether letting patients choose their own treatment leads to better results than when a trained psychologist recommends the best treatment for each person.

First, you'll have a video call with a psychologist who will confirm your anxiety diagnosis. Then you'll be randomly placed into one of two groups: either you'll read short descriptions of two different online therapy programs and pick the one you prefer, or you'll be randomly assigned to one of them. Either way, you'll complete 8 modules of online therapy over 10 weeks, reading material and doing exercises at your own pace, with the ability to message a psychologist through the platform if you have questions. Your anxiety symptoms will be measured at the start and end of treatment to see how much you improve.
