Key inclusion & exclusion criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

- Children with t-score elevations > 60 on either the total score or at least 4
subscales of either instrument will be considered eligible for the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Children will be excluded if they already meet criteria for disorders on the Anxiety
Disorders Interview Schedule (ADIS), are unable to complete the inventories due to
intellectual impairment or weak English skills (limiting the benefits of cognitive
behavioral therapy), or if they are already engaged in ongoing psychiatric or
psychological treatment that could confound study intervention effects.

- Children with elevated 'externalizing' scores on the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL)
(t-score > 60) will also be excluded, as they are often difficult to manage in CBT
groups, and may obtain more benefit from other interventions.
