Generalized anxiety disorder: Medication or Psychotherapy?

Which treatment approach promises better therapy results?
A brand new meta-analysis should provide answers:

Emily Carl, Sara M. Witcraft, Brooke Y. Kauffman, Eilis M. Gillespie, Eni S. Becker, Pim Cuijpers, Michael Van Ameringen, Jasper AJ Smits & Mark B. Powers (2019) Psychological and pharmacological treatments for generalized anxiety disorder (2019) GAD): a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, DOI: 10.1080 / 16506073.2018.1560358

In this YouTube video, we present the findings of a comprehensive meta-analysis that examines evidence-based psychotherapies and medications for Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD). The analysis includes 79 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with a total of 11,002 participants diagnosed with GAD.

The main objective of the study was to determine updated pooled effect sizes for psychotherapies and medications in treating GAD and to investigate potential factors that may influence treatment outcomes.

The results indicate that psychotherapy demonstrates a medium to large effect size (g = 0.76) on GAD outcomes, while medications show a small effect size (g = 0.38). Both psychotherapy and medications show a medium effect size on depression outcomes (g = 0.64 and g = 0.59, respectively)...
