The ‘Long-Term’ Effects of Universal School-based Anxiety Prevention Trials: A Systematic Review

Conclusions The findings from this review suggest that the effects of some universally delivered school-based anxiety prevention trials can last up to 12-months, but this may depend on various factors (including program-type). It was not possible to draw firm conclusions regarding the influence of delivery mode (teacher versus health professional), parent sessions or child booster sessions. Further high quality RCTs with long-term follow-up periods are needed.
