**3.7. Therapy outcome and test diagnostics: at the end of therapy (independent blind diagnostician)**

*SCID diagnostics* demonstrated a remission of the SAD and depressive episode. The patient showed a well understanding for the complexity of his symptomatology and confrontation with otherwise too much anxiety causing social interaction and performance situations. Safety and avoidance behavior was no longer seen. *Standard diagnostics*: The *Symptom Checklist (SCL-K-9)* showed the psychological symptom pressure on average (T = 57, D = −14, *p* < 0.05). The *Brief Symptom Checklist (BSCL)* also showed all values on average. *Disorder-specific diagnostics*: The *Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale (LSAS-SR)* total score was at 42 (cutoff, 30; LSASprä = 105), the *Social Interaction Anxiety Scale (SIAS)* at 17 (cutoff, 35; SIASprä = 46), the *Social Phobia Scale (SPS)* at 11 (cutoff, 24; SPSprä = 29), and the *Beck Depression Inventory (BDI)* at 2 (no depression; BDIprä = 17).
