ABSTRACT:
Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD) presents a high prevalence among youth, leading to impairments in interpersonal adjustment and academic performance among higher education students. This chapter analyzes the theoretical foundations and empirical evidence of Group Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (GCBT) for college students with SAD. A narrative literature review was conducted across national and international databases (PubMed, SciELO, LILACS, PePSIC, and Google Scholar), alongside reference manuals. Findings indicate that self-focused attention and safety behaviors maintain the fear of negative evaluation, compromising academic adaptation. GCBT emerges as a cost-effective, structured modality that integrates psychoeducation, cognitive restructuring, graduated exposure, and group therapeutic factors (cohesion and vicarious learning). Clinical trials and meta-analyses demonstrate the efficacy of group and brief interventions in reducing anxiety symptoms and enhancing social skills. In conclusion, GCBT implemented in Psychology University Clinics represents a viable strategy integrating psychological assistance, supervised clinical training, and scientific development.
