Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Randomized, Controlled Study of Two At-Home Self-Guided Virtual Reality Interventions for Adults With Social Anxiety Disorder. (NCT NCT06037668)

NCT ID: NCT06037668

Last Updated: 2025-03-12

Results Overview

The Credibility/Expectation Questionnaire (CEQ) asks about the improvements that subjects believe will be achieved as a result of treatment, and how believable, convincing,and logical the treatment seems.It contains six items rated on a 1-9 scale. The first three items load onto the credibility factor. Higher scores suggest better experience, lower scores suggest poor experience.Credibility score is calculated by taking the sum of score of the first 3 items of the CEQ scale ranging from 3 to 27.

The Credibility/Expectation Questionnaire (CEQ) asks about the improvements that subjects believe will be achieved as a result of treatment, and how believable, convincing,and logical the treatment seems.It contains six items rated on a 1-9 scale. The final three items load onto the expectancy factor. Higher scores suggest better experience, lower scores suggest poor experience.Expectancy score is calculated by taking the sum of score of the last 3 items of the CEQ scale ranging from 3 to 27.
