Expectancy theory posits that anxiety sensitivity may serve as a premorbid risk factor for the development of pathology (S. Reiss, 1991). The principal aim present study was to determine whether acts specific vulnerability in pathogenesis pathology. A large, nonclinical sample young adults (N = 1,401) prospectively followed over 5-week highly stressful period time (i.e., military basic training). Anxiety found predict spontaneous panic attacks after controlling history and trait anxiety....
Attentional bias toward negative social cues is thought to serve an etiological and/or maintaining role in anxiety disorder (SAD). The current study tested whether training patients disengage from may ameliorate (N = 36) with a primary diagnosis of generalized SAD. Patients were randomly assigned either attention condition (n 18), which completed modified dot-probe task designed facilitate attentional disengagement disgusted faces, or control 18). As predicted, the exhibited significantly...
Increasing evidence suggests that anxiety sensitivity (AS) may be a premorbid risk factor for the development of pathology. The principal aim this study was to replicate and extend previous longitudinal evaluating whether AS acts as vulnerability in pathogenesis panic (N. Schmidt, D. Lerew, & R. Jackson, 1997). A large nonclinical sample young adults (N = 1,296) prospectively followed over 5-week, highly stressful period time (i.e., military basic training). Consistent with authors' initial...
T. E. Joiner's (2004, in press) theory of suicidal behavior suggests that past plays an important role future suicidality. However, the mechanism by which this risk is transferred and causal implications have not been well studied. The current study provides evaluation nature limits relationship across 4 populations, with varying degrees behavior. Across settings, age groups, impairment levels, association between symptoms held, even when controlling for strong covariates like hopelessness...
Anxiety sensitivity (AS) is a well-established, malleable risk factor for anxiety and other forms of psychopathology. Structural evaluation models AS suggest it can be decomposed into physical, social, cognitive concerns, emerging work indicates that these components may differentially related to various adverse outcomes. In particular, concerns have been consistently linked with suicide. Prior has also shown brief interventions effectively reduce overall AS, but treatments tend focus on its...
Body vigilance, consciously attending to internal cues, is a normal adaptive process. The present report investigated whether body vigilance exaggerated among those with panic disorder, condition characterized by intense fear and worry regarding bodily sensations. Vigilance Scale validated in nonclinical anxiety disorder samples. Study 1 suggests that normally distributed sample (n = 472) but related history of spontaneous attacks, symptomatology, sensitivity. 2 elevated patients 48)...
Study Objectives:A growing body of research indicates that sleep disturbances may be specifically linked to suicidal behaviors. It remains unclear, however, whether this link is largely explained by depressive symptoms. The present study investigated the relationship between suicidality, depression, and complaints in a clinical outpatient setting.
Emerging evidence suggests that elevated anxiety sensitivity (AS) is associated with substance use disorders. However, prospective regarding this association currently lacking. The primary aim of the present study was to determine whether AS involved in pathogenesis substance-related psychopathology. A large, nonclinical sample young adults (N = 404) prospectively followed for approximately 2 years. (i.e., 16-item Anxiety Sensitivity Index total scores) at entry and gender served as...
Objective-Anxiety disorders are the most prevalent psychiatric in United States and result substantial burden to individual society.While effective treatments for anxiety have been developed, there has substantially less focus on interventions aimed at amelioration of related risk maintenance factors.Anxiety sensitivity (AS) is a well-established, malleable factor panic disorder other psychopathology.The aim current investigation was enhance efficacy AS treatment through refinement...
