الملخص EN

The research aimed at modifying cognitive distortions, identifying the effect of this modification on social anxiety, and determining its durability after the follow-up time among students at the Faculty of Mass Communication- Al-Azhar University.

Thirty four students at the Faculty of Mass Communication- Al-Azhar University participated in the current study.

They were divided into two groups (experimental and control), each of which consisted of (17) subjects.

Both scales of cognitive distortions and social anxiety were administered.

The researcher prepared these scales as well as the proposed counseling program.

Results indicated that there were statistically significant differences between the mean scores attained by the experimental group on the pre- and post-tests of cognitive distortions and social anxiety, in favor of the post measurement.

There were statistically significant differences between the mean scores attained by the experimental and control groups on the post-test of cognitive distortions and social anxiety, in favor of the experimental group.

There were no statistically significant differences between the mean scores attained by the experimental group on the post-test and that of the same group on the follow-up test of cognitive distortions and social anxiety.
