Notes: 1) The values presented in Table 3 represent the Univariate ANCOVAs and the paired sample t-test for the main outcome measures. 2) The wait-list control group (WLCG) received the same psychosocial intervention after the iCBT group ended it (i.e., starting from week ten). The data presented in the bottom of Table 3 summarized the differences between the pre- and post-intervention scores obtained by the second intervention group (i.e. the former WLCG). Abbreviations: LSAS-SR = Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale–Self-Report version; SPIN = Social Phobia Inventory; SIAS = Social Interaction and Anxiety Scale; SPSQ = Social Phobia Screening Questionnaire; BDI-II = Beck Depression Inventory-II; ATQ = Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire; ABS-II = Attitude and Belief Scale-II. Ps = Participants.
