TOBAR, Ronald Alberto Toro. Cognitive therapy for social phobia: issues from the Beck's model. Rev. bras.ter. cogn. [online]. 2012, vol.8, n.2, pp.118-125. ISSN 1808-5687.

Social anxiety has been defined as the result of complex bio-psycho-social responses with evolutive, biological, affective and cognitive components. These responses are evidenced when the individual faces threat of criticism and negative evaluation by others as well as control loss, leading to social and personal clinically significant impairment. There are abundant social phobia explanatory models, from which many are based on underlying psychological processes (attentional, motivational, perceptual), which has demonstrated empirically valid interventions, such as Cognitive Therapy of A. T. Beck and colleagues (Clark & Beck, 2010). This paper aims to provide a brief overview of a current cognitive model of social phobia based on information processing model that involves the theoretical model, the evaluation and psychotherapy suggested plan. Finally, this review examines available empirical evidence about of cognitive therapy and its advantages recognized by the scientific community compared to other psychotherapies regarding control groups, research methodologies and limitations.

Palabras clave : anxiety; cognitive therapy; phobic disorders (social phobia).
