Abstract
This thesis is a preliminary exploration of research on anxiety and anxiety management interventions. The future direction of anxiety research should be to make anxiety management interventions more available and improve their efficacy (Robinson, 2013; Craske, 2014). The goal of this thesis is to simplify a holistic set of techniques for managing anxiety so that they can be helpful to students at the University of Oregon. Increasing the availability of anxiety management interventions via video, and their efficacy (a therapy's ability to effectively manage anxiety) through combining multiple interventions, is how my thesis fits into the future direction of anxiety management research. I hypothesize that a sample is impacted by anxiety and that a 10-minute video summary of a holistic set of anxiety management tools will improve the sample's use, knowledge, and confidence in these tools. The anxiety management methods I will cover include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure Therapy (ERP), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I will examine elements of these anxiety management interventions, their effectiveness, availability, and discuss how they could be helpful to people without an anxiety disorder diagnosis.
