<jats:p> Abstract: Social phobia (SP) is a common mental disorder in youth often accompanied by absence from school, which may require daycare or inpatient intervention (DC/IN). Objective: The present explorative study investigates changes in anxiety-specific implicit assumptions and interpretation bias following DC/IN. Methods: The study included 16 youths with SP ( M age = 15.8 [ SD = 1.24], females: 62.5 %) participating in DC/IN. We assessed the main outcomes using the Implicit Association Test and Affective Misattribution Procedure. Results: A large effect was shown for reducing implicit assumptions of feeling anxious ( p = .142; η<jats:sup> 2</jats:sup><jats:sub> p</jats:sub> = .171) and for reducing the implicit interpretation bias ( p = .137; η<jats:sup> 2</jats:sup><jats:sub> p</jats:sub> = .162). No change was indicated by effect size in implicit assumptions of feeling socially rejected ( p = .649; η<jats:sup> 2</jats:sup><jats:sub> p</jats:sub> = .016). Social phobia symptoms initially correlated with changes in implicit assumptions of feeling anxious ( r = .45). Conclusion: Effect sizes indicate that implicit anxiety-specific assumptions and interpretation bias descriptively improved following DC/IN. Thus, DC/IN may lead to meaningful improvements of anxiety-specific cognition in some individuals with high SP symptoms, emphasizing the relevance of cognitive behavioral approaches in the treatment of SP. Several limitations are discussed. </jats:p>
