Bu çalışma, rehberli ve rehbersiz internet temelli bilişsel davranışçı terapilerin (iBDT) sınav kaygısını azaltmadaki etki düzeyini karşılaştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmaya 32’si rehberli, 32’si rehbersiz grupta olmak üzere toplam 64 katılımcı dahil edilmiştir. Müdahale öncesi ve sonrası sınav kaygısı düzeyleri Sınav Kaygısı Envanteri (SKE) ile ölçülmüş; kullanım bağlılığı ise iBDT programının tamamlanma yüzdesi üzerinden değerlendirilmiştir. Veriler tekrarlı ölçümler varyans analizi ile incelenmiştir. Zaman faktörü için anlamlı bir ana etki saptanmış (F(1, 62) = 108.046, p < .001), ancak zaman × grup etkileşimi anlamlı bulunmamıştır (F(1, 62) = 1.153, p = .287). Holm düzeltmeli post hoc analizler, her iki grupta da sınav kaygısı skorlarında anlamlı ve büyük etki büyüklüğünde azalmalar olduğunu ortaya koymuştur (rehbersiz grup: d = 1.562; rehberli grup: d = 1.922). Grupların son test puanları arasında anlamlı fark gözlenmemiştir (p = .832, d = 0.153) ve etki büyüklüğü farkı da anlamlı değildir (z = 0.63, p = .528). Ayrıca, rehberli grubun iBDT kullanım yüzdesi rehbersiz gruba kıyasla anlamlı derecede daha yüksek bulunmuştur (U = 336.000, p = .017), ancak kullanım yüzdesi ile sınav kaygısındaki değişim arasında anlamlı bir ilişki saptanmamıştır (r = .127, p = .317). Bulgular, rehberli müdahalenin kullanıcı bağlılığını artırma potansiyeline işaret ederken, rehbersiz iBDT’nin de etkili ve bağımsız uygulanabilir bir müdahale seçeneği olabileceğini göstermektedir. Sonuç olarak, her iki müdahale biçimi de sınav kaygısının azaltılmasında etkili, erişilebilir ve esnek uygulanabilirliğe sahip psikolojik destek seçenekleri sunmaktadır.
