Six anxiety disorders were assessed : social phobia, agoraphobia, panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder.
This paper reports on the findings for the anxiety disorders (panic disorder/agoraphobia, social phobia, generalized anxiety disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder).
Thus, separation anxiety, phobias, somatic complaints and behaviour problems are seen more frequently in younger children, while adolescent girls more frequently report vegetative symptoms.
The high prevalence of simple phobia has not inflated the overall prevalence of mental disorder since all of these patients also had another mental disorder.
Reducing demands on clinicians by offering computer-aided self-help for phobia/ panic : a feasibility study.
One of these involves panic attacks, one panic disorder, and one social phobia.
Phobia-type (agora-, social or specific) was stratified across the three treatment conditions.
The fourth column displays odds ratios and confidence intervals comparing individuals with current social phobia to individuals with no lifetime history of the disorder.
