Biological Explanation
Freudian Explanation
Behavioral Views
Cognitive Views
Social Factors
Cultural Factors
Biological Factors of Anxiety and Panic
 Genetic vulnerability
 Anxiety and brain circuits
 Depleted levels of GABA
 Corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) and HYPAC axis
 Limbic (amygdala) and the
septal-hippocampal systems
 Behavioral inhibition (BIS)
 Fight/flight (FF) systems
Psychological Factors of Anxiety and Fear
 Began with Freud
 Anxiety is a psychic reaction to fear
 Anxiety involves reactivation of an infantile fear situation
 Behavioral and cognitive views
 Invokes conditioning and cognitive explanations
 Anxiety and fear are learned responses
 Catastrophic thinking and appraisals play a role
 Early childhood contributions
 Experiences with uncontrollability and unpredictability
 Social contributions
 Stressful life events trigger vulnerabilities
 Cultural Expectations

Anxiety Disorders Categories
 Generalized Anxiety Disorder
 Panic Disorder with and without
Agoraphobia
 Specific Phobias
 Social Phobia
 Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
 Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
Generalized Anxiety Disorder
 Worry
 About Everything
 Worrying is Unproductive (Interferes with
Functioning)
 Strong, Persistent
 Uncontrollable
 Somatic symptoms
 Differ from panic (e.g., muscle tension, fatigue,
irritability)
“Do you worry excessively about minor things?”
Fig. 4-3, p. 127
Treatment of GAD
 Generally Weak

 Relapse rates are high following medication
discontinuation
 Psychological and Combined Treatments

Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

flashbacks)

Subtypes of Post Traumatic Stress

Treatment for OCD
 Biological Interventions
 SSRIs seem to benefit up to 60% of patients
 Limited extent of help
 Relapse is common with medication discontinuation
 Psychosurgery (cingulotomy) is used in extreme cases
 Psychological Treatment
 Cognitive-behavioral therapy is most effective with OCD
 Exposure and response prevention
 Combining medication with CBT may be no better than
CBT alone
Factors in Treating Anxiety Disorders
 Biological Interventions
 Cognitive-Behavioral Interventions
 What about:
 Psychoanalytic Interventions
 Existential Interventions
 Humanistic Interventions
 Constructivist Interventions
 And, then again, what about:
 Social Interventions
 Cultural Interventions
Comorbidity
 Comorbidity is common across the anxiety disorders
 About half of patients have two or more secondary
diagnoses
 Major depression is the most common secondary
diagnosis
 Comorbidity suggests common factors across anxiety
disorders
 Comorbidity suggests a relation between anxiety and
depression
