Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of the study is to investigate if an Internet-based psychological treatment based on principles from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy can increase function and quality of life for patients with Parkinson disease.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The Internet-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (ICBT) will be given as an adjunct to the Standard Medical Treatment. ICBT will be compared to Standard Medical Treatment alone (SMT).

A secondary aim is make a preliminary evaluation of the ICBT-program with less and less active therapist support. It is hypothesized that both active treatments will be superior to SMT in improving quality of life and functioning and that ICBT with full therapist support will be superior to ICBT with lower level of therapist support.
