A network perspective may shed light on the understanding of Internet-based CBT efficacy for social anxiety disorder. Previous cross-sectional evidence revealed a densely interconnected network for individuals with social anxiety. Yet, longitudinal network changes before and after ICBT are lacking. This study aimed to investigate pathological network changes with Graphical Gaussian Model among patients with social anxiety disorder (n = 249). Social phobia scale (SPS) and Social interaction anxiety scale (SIAS) were measured before and after 8 weeks Internet-based CBT. Results revealed the connection between symptom tension when speaking and symptom awkward when being watched was the most robust edges during ICBT interventions. The pathological network benefited from ICBT and exhibited modification in several prominent interconnections. The overall network connectivity continues to exhibit comparable strength after ICBT. This study represents the first examination of social anxiety network changes after patients with SAD completed a systematic ICBT. Changes in critical edges and nodes provide valuable insights for the design and efficacy assessment of ICBT interventions.
