Anxiety Control

anx The Training was found to produce substantial anxiety-reduction benefits in 6 consecutive studies.

The more promising cognitive and desensitization protocols yield a respectable 1.0 – 1.2 SD benefit.

The anxiety control training produced an average 1.8 SD benefit in our first 5 studies, showing significantly stronger anxiety reduction.

Substantial Test Gains

18 percentile test gains. In our Spring 2004 College study, the training CD produced significant three quarters a letter grade (or 18 percentile) test gains, for 12 freshmen students. 

12 percentile test gains. In our 2010 nursing program study, the protocol produced 60+ point gains on the hesi standardized test, or 12 percentile gains, for 22 highly-anxious juniors (compared to controls) .

7 percentile test gains. Our 2005 5th grade research had 22 treated students and 14 controls.  The training produced a significant 7 percentile gain on the Tennessee high-stakes, high-stress TCAP tests.

4 percentile test gains for 6th graders on 2004 TCAPS.


Summary

We conclude that the training protocol should produce a substantial half grade benefit for anxious high school and college students, and a more modest quarter grade benefit for intermediate and middle school students.
