  2. To assess the efficacy and feasibility of CBT (CT, BT, CBT and third wave CBT interventions) for different anxiety disorders in older adults aged 55 years or over compared with other psychological therapies
  3. To conduct a narrative review to additionally describe trials omitted from the quantitative analysis due to missing data.
