Zusammenfassung:	Highlights • ICBT for older adults with generalized anxiety was compared to a waiting list condition. • ICBT participants improved more rapidly on measures of anxiety and depression. • Medium-to-large effect sizes were observed for ICBT participants on most measures. • Higher credibility of treatment ratings predicted faster improvement in anxiety. • Our study adds evidence to an emerging body of research on ICBT for older adults.
