The purpose of this study is to investigate Efficacy of Cognitive-Behavioral Group Therapy (CBGT) versus Group Hypnotherapy (GHt) on Brain/Behavioral Systems of Social Phobia Patients.<br> <span style="color:#008080;"><strong>Materials & Methods:</strong></span> The numbers of 30 subjects were divided into two groups receiving either CBGT or GHt. The questionnaires of brain<span dir="RTL">/</span>behavioral systems (GWPQ) and social phobia (SPIN) were administered in two phases (before and after intervention).<br> <span style="color:#008080;"><strong>Results: </strong></span>Both therapy approaches caused significant changes in the level of social phobia and brain/behavioral systems activity. The alterations in brain-behavioral subsystems (BIS and FFFS) in the Extinction and Flight components were in favor of&nbsp;hypnotherapy (<em>P</em><0.05).<br> <span style="color:#008080;"><strong>Conclusion: </strong></span>The findings from the present research provide evidence that due to alterations in brain/behavioral systems associated with the social phobia, hypnotherapy can be considered as a powerful approach treating social phobia.</span></span></p> Social phobia, Brain/behavioral systems, BIS, FFFS, Cognitive-behavioral therapy, Hypnotherapy 51 56 http://journal.zums.ac.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-4116-1&slc_lang=en&sid=1 Golnaz Forouzandehfar گلناز فروزنده فر g_forouzandehfar@yahoo.com 5200319475328460047800 5200319475328460047800 No Dept. of Clinical Psychology, Faculty of Psychology, Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran دانشجوی کارشناسی ارشد روانشناسی بالینی Mehdi Fathi مهدی فتحی fathim@mums.ac.ir 5200319475328460047801 5200319475328460047801 No Surgical Oncology Research Center, Faculty of Medicine, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran دانشیار بیهوشی، مرکز تحقیقات جراحی سرطان، دانشکده پزشکی، دانشگاه علوم پزشکی مشهد Mohsen Dadashi محسن داداشی Psy.mohsen@gmail.com 5200319475328460047802 5200319475328460047802 Yes Dept. of Clinical Psychology, Faculty of Medicine, Zanjan University of Medical Sciences, Zanjan, Iran دکتری تخصصی روانشناسی بالینی، استادیار گروه روانشناسی بالینی، دانشکده پزشکی، دانشگاه علوم پزشکی زنجان، زنجان
