Trains you to ignore negative stimuli that may cause stress in social situations
Features AntiAnxiety
This app uses cognitive-bias modification (CBM) to train you to ignore negative stimuli that would otherwise cause you stress in social situations.
The app is based on research by the McNally Laboratory at Harvard University.CBMs approach is to change harmful thought patterns.
Every individual perceives reality differently (e.g.
glass half full vs.
half empty), which is referred to as "interpretation bias".
People suffering from anxiety are prone to interpret uncertain situations more negatively.
The apps goal is to train you to focus your attention more on positive rather than negative meaning.Studies have used CBM as a potential therapy for social anxiety, with positive first results: "After just eight 15-minute sessions - a mere two hours of active treatment - 72 percent of patients in the treatment group no longer met diagnostic criteria for social anxiety disorder, compared with 11 percent of patients in the control group.
Even more startling, the diagnostic differences were still evident at a follow-up exam four months later." (Weir, 2011, http://bit.ly/1nWGKN3)By using the app three times a day for just 2 minutes, you may be able to decrease your social anxiety.

What Our Users Say
Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our users have to say about our Android app.
"Progress reports and additional pictures would be good"
H JR
"Instructions could be clearer (which seems odd, because they're rather simple anyway). Is it necessary to stare at the middle of the screen (where the * pops up) the entire time?"
A Google user
"Had a bit of trouble figuring out what I should do, but one I figured out that I don't have to stare at where the * is when it's not there, I was was fine."
