Background Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is a highly prevalent, chronic disorder associated with impaired quality of life, societal burden, and poor treatment rates. Internet-delivered interventions may improve the accessibility of treatments and are increasingly being used. This study aimed to update a previous meta-analysis to determine the effectiveness of available Internet-delivered interventions in treating symptoms of GAD.
