Abstract
Our paper aims to develop a web-based IT system based on a framework for internet based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (iCBT) and Computer based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CCBT) applications, for the treatment of mild to moderate Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD) diagnoses. We place our research in the intervention area of iCBT, where the facilitation of interaction with therapists in a non-threatening environment, peer interaction, and access to self-help and educational resources, will likely lead to changes in the perception of the self and a reduction of SAD symptoms in patients. The contributions of the paper are: (1) a generalizable framework for computer based therapies; (2) a new design approach, informed by Activity Theory that leverages the SAD model to deliver the conceptual framework; and (3) an implemented artifact for evaluation.
