The problem
Intervention: Therapist-guided Internet-delivered cognitive-behavior therapy (ICBT) comprising 12 weekly modules primarily based on exposure with response prevention
Who it was tested with: Children and adolescents aged 12-17 years with body dysmorphic disorder recruited throughout Sweden (n=154).
Children or communities are compared with a group that did not receive the intervention, or followed over years. This is the design that best separates what the intervention did from everything else that changed.
"This is a 3-site superiority randomized controlled trial including 154 young people (12-17 years) with BDD recruited throughout Sweden. Participants are randomized 1:1 to 12 weekly modules of either therapist-supported ICBT primarily based on exposure with response prevention or an active comparator consisting of therapist-supported Internet-delivered relaxation training." This is a rigorous experimental design with randomization and a built-in control condition using an active comparator (relaxation training rather than no treatment).
This is a protocol document describing a study still in recruitment phase. No outcome data are available. The study's actual efficacy, cost-effectiveness, and durability results remain unknown pending completion and analysis.
