Clark and Wells’ (1995) model of social phobia proposes that there are three types of maladaptive self-beliefs responsible
for persistent social anxiety (high standard, conditional, and unconditional beliefs). Although these beliefs are theoretically
important, there currently is not a validated measure of these beliefs in the social anxiety literature. Hence, the Self-Beliefs
Related to Social Anxiety (SBSA) Scale was developed (Wong and Moulds 2009) and its psychometric properties were examined
in the current study using a non-clinical sample (N = 600). Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses ultimately indicated that a correlated three-factor solution optimally
summarized the data with the three factors corresponding to the three belief types. The SBSA and its three subscales demonstrated
good internal consistency and test-retest reliability, as well as convergent and divergent validity. The SBSA thus appears
to have good psychometric properties and is appropriate for use in non-clinical samples. The potential applications of the
SBSA and avenues for future research are discussed. 相似文献

Primary hyperhidrosis is a dermatological condition involving excessive sweating. Little research has been conducted on the
psychological processes associated with this condition. A cognitive-behavioral approach would suggest that negative beliefs
about the nature and consequences of sweating paradoxically increase sweating, and therefore maintain hyperhidrosis. The present
research reports on the development and psychometric evaluation of the Sweating Cognitions Inventory (SCI), a self-report
measure that assesses dysfunctional beliefs in hyperhidrosis. The SCI was administered to a clinical sample of patients diagnosed
with hyperhidrosis (N = 226) as well as a student comparison group (N = 482). The SCI demonstrated good internal consistency and a stable, unidimensional factor structure in both samples. Sweating
cognitions differentiated between the two groups, indicating discriminant validity. Correlations with comparison measures
indicated that sweating cognitions were strongly related to sweating severity, and also to social anxiety and anxiety sensitivity.
These results are consistent with our conceptualization that dysfunctional sweating cognitions can maintain and exacerbate
excessive sweating. A cognitive-behavioral conceptualization of hyperhidrosis could advance our understanding of the condition
and could lead to novel treatment approaches. 相似文献

The Revised Child Anxiety and Depression Scale—Parent Version (RCADS-P) is a parent-report questionnaire of youth anxiety
and depression with scales corresponding to the DSM diagnoses of separation anxiety disorder, social phobia, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive
disorder, and major depressive disorder. The RCADS-P was recently developed and has previously demonstrated strong psychometric
properties in a clinic-referred sample (Ebesutani et al., Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology 38, 249–260, 2010b). The present study examined the psychometric properties of the RCADS-P in a school-based population. As completed by parents
of 967 children and adolescents, the RCADS-P demonstrated high internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and good convergent/divergent
validity, supporting the RCADS-P as a measure of internalizing problems specific to depression and five anxiety disorders
in school samples. Normative data are also reported to allow for the derivation of T-scores to enhance clinicians’ ability
to make classification decisions using RCADS-P subscale scores. 相似文献

In all, 187 participants completed a new, self-report measure of eight multiple intelligences (Haselbauer 2005), a General Knowledge test (Irwing et al. Personality and Individual Differences 30:857–871, 2001), a measure of Approaches to Learning Styles (Biggs 1987), a measure of the Big Five personality traits (Costa and McCrae 1992), as well as gave their own estimated scores on the Gardner (1999) multiple intelligences. Alpha co-efficients were modest with only three of the eight test-derived, multiple intelligence
scores being over .70. ‘Linguistic’ and Mathematical intelligence alone were correlated with General Knowledge. Five of the
eight ‘intelligences’ were correlated both with Extraversion and Openness. Regressions indicated that ‘Intrapersonal intelligence’
was closely linked with Stability and Conscientiousness; ‘Interpersonal intelligence’ with Extraversion; ‘Linguistic intelligence’
with Openness; ‘Mathematical intelligence’ with Agreeableness and Conscientiousness. Correlations between self-estimated and
test-derived emotional intelligence showed correlations ranging from r = .18 to r = .56 for similar type ‘intelligences’. This study provides modest evidence for the concurrent and construct validity of
this measure. It requires more psychometric evidence of validity before it is used. 相似文献

This study extended earlier research (Harrington in Cong Ther Res 30:699–709, 2006) on the relationship of the multidimensional Frustration Discomfort Scale (FDS) with measures of depressed mood, anxiety
and anger, independent of self-esteem. The study employed a non-clinical student sample (N = 323) and measures of both state and trait anger and anxiety. In addition, the Unconditional Self-Acceptance Questionnaire
(USAQ) was also used to specifically assess REBT self-acceptance beliefs regarding self-worth, as well as a measure of self-esteem.
A Serbian version of the FDS was developed for use in the study. Consistent with the earlier research, significant predictive
relationships were found, whilst controlling for self-worth, between entitlement and anger, emotional intolerance and anxiety,
and discomfort intolerance with depressed mood. Emotional intolerance also proved to be a significant positive predictor of
depression, whilst achievement frustration had a negative relationship with depression. Overall, the FDS dimensions had a
weaker relationship with emotional states than traits. The results are discussed in regard to the relationship between FDS
dimensions and dysfunctional emotions in a non-clinical sample. 相似文献

The aim of the present study was to evaluate a factor mixture-based taxonic-dimensional model of anxiety sensitivity (AS)
(Bernstein et al. Behavior Therapy 41:515-521, 2010), as measured by the ASI-3 (Taylor et al. Psychological Assessment 19:176-188, 2007), in regard to panic attacks, anxiety symptoms, and behavioral impairment among a university sample (N = 150, n
females
= 107, M
age = 21.3 years, SD = 4.3) and a clinical sample (N = 150, n
females
= 102, M
age = 39.0 years, SD = 12.0) from Mexico City, Mexico. Findings demonstrated cross-national support for the conceptual and operational utility
of the AS taxonic-dimensional hypothesis (Bernstein et al. Journal of Anxiety Disorders 20:1-22, 2007b). Specifically, (1) the FMM-based AS taxon class base rate was significantly greater among the clinical relative to the university
sample; (2) risk for panic attacks was significantly greater among the AS taxon class relative to the AS normative class;
and (3) continuous individual differences in AS physical and psychological concerns, within the AS taxon class, were associated
with level of risk for panic attacks, as well as panic attack severity and anxiety symptom levels. Similar AS taxonic-dimensional
effects were observed in relation to degree of behavioral impairment across domains of functioning. The study results are
discussed with respect to their implications for better understanding the nature of AS-related cognitive vulnerability for
panic and related anxiety psychopathology. 相似文献

The current study employed model-based cluster analysis in a sample of male adolescent offenders (n = 94) to examine subtypes based on psychopathic traits and anxiety. Using the Psychopathy Checklist: Youth Version (PCL:YV;
Forth et al. 2003) and the self-report Antisocial Process Screening Device (APSD; Caputo et al. 1999), analyses identified three clusters in males that varied in the severity of psychopathic traits (low, moderate, and high)
and anxiety. The high psychopathic group exhibited more negative personality traits and was judged to be at greater risk for
dangerousness whereas the low psychopathic group exhibited more positive personality traits and was judged to be at lower
risk for dangerousness. Implications regarding potential developmental differences between adolescent and adult psychopathy,
as well as treatment considerations are discussed. 相似文献

To evaluate emotional approach coping, including the dimensions of emotional processing and emotional expression, the Emotional
Approach Coping Scale (EACS) is frequently used. This study aimed to examine the psychometric properties of situational EACS
among Turkish participants (n = 557), including university students (n = 283) and community members (n = 274). The results revealed that a two-factor model showed significant goodness of fit for confirmatory factor analysis.
Furthermore, multi-group comparisons based on sample groups (university students and community members) and gender groups
demonstrated no significant differences between the constrained and unconstrained models. In addition to sufficient reliability
of the EACS, the concurrent and discriminant validity of the scale were supported by association of the EACS with state anxiety
and social desirability. The theoretical and practical implications of this study are discussed. 相似文献

The Oxford Happiness Questionnaire (OHQ) was developed by Hills and Argyle (2002) to provide a more accessible equivalent measure of the Oxford Happiness Inventory (OHI). The aim of the present study was
to examine the internal consistency reliability, and construct validity of this new instrument alongside the Eysenckian dimensional
model of personality. The Oxford Happiness Questionnaire was completed by a sample of 131 undergraduate students together
with the abbreviated form of the Revised Eysenck Personality Questionnaire. The data demonstrated good internal consistency
reliability (alpha = .92) and good construct validity in terms of positive association with extraversion (r = .38 p < .001) and negative association with neuroticism (r = −.57 p < .001). The kind of happiness measured by the OHQ is clearly associated with stable extraversion. 相似文献

It has been reported that depression and anxiety have overlapping symptoms and are conceptually interrelated. One of the most
prominent theoretical developments that explain this association is Clark and Watson’s tripartite model (Journal of Abnormal
Psychology, 100:316–336, 1991) that posits these two disorders and negative emotions share a latent component of negative affect (NA). The current study
had two aims, (a) to compare a tripartite factor structure against competing models by Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA)
of the Depression Anxiety and Stress Scales (DASS-21) (Lovibond and Lovibond 1995), and (b) explore the psychometric properties of the DASS-21. The DASS-21 was completed by a representative sample of 4039
young Australians, aged 12–18 years, as part of the South Australian Youth Mental Health Survey (SAYMHS), South Australia,
Australia. The best fitting model for the data consisted of anhedonic depression, physiological hyperarousal, and general
NA. The psychometric properties of the DASS-21 were excellent with a stable and interpretable factor structure and good internal
consistency. The results of the current study suggest that the theoretical tripartite structure of depression and anxiety
is robust and applicable among Australian youth. The diagnostic, clinical and theoretical implications of these findings are
discussed. 相似文献

Confirmatory factor analysis was used to test the construct validity of an attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder-inattention,
attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder-hyperactivity/impulsivity, oppositional defiant disorder toward adults, academic
and social competence factor model with teacher ratings of Thai adolescents (n = 872) with the Child and Adolescent Disruptive Behavior Inventory. The five-factor model resulted in an adequate fit in
an absolute sense (i.e., CFI = .960; TLI = .985; RMSEA = .065; and WRMR = .883). All the items had significant and substantial
loadings on their respective factors (i.e., > .78) with the five-factors showing discriminant validity. The five-factor model
also resulted in similar results for boys and girls separately as well as younger and older adolescents. The current findings
with the teacher version of the measure in conjunction with earlier research with mothers’ and fathers’ ratings of Brazilian,
Thai, and American children (Burns et al., Psychological Assessment, 20, 121-130, 2008) and Thai adolescents (Burns et al., Psychological Assessment, 21, 635-641, 2009) provide increasing support for the construct validity of Child and Adolescent Disruptive Behavior Inventory within multiple
cultures. Procedures are also outlined to improve the content validity as well as test the construct validity of forthcoming
parent and teacher DSM-V ADHD/ODD rating scales. 相似文献

Conflicting findings exist regarding (1) whether anxiety sensitivity (AS) is a construct distinct from anxiety in children
and (2) the specific nature of the role of AS in child anxiety. This study uses meta-analytic techniques to (1) determine
whether youth (ages 6–18 years) have been reported to experience AS, (2) examine whether AS differentiates anxiety disordered
youth from youth without diagnoses, and (3) ascertain whether AS distinguishes youth with panic disorder from those with other
anxiety disorders. The weighted mean effect size analyses included 15 studies and 6,579 participants. Results suggested positive
correlational relationships between AS and anxiety for children (r = 0.26) and adolescents (r = 0.36) and higher levels of AS for anxiety disordered youth than non-clinical youth (d = 0.64). Findings tentatively suggested higher levels of AS for youth with panic disorder than youth diagnosed with other
anxiety disorders. Implications and future directions in the research of child AS are discussed. 相似文献

Previous research has shown that depressive rumination is an important vulnerability factor for experiencing depressive symptoms.
The most widely used measure to assess depressive rumination is the Ruminative Response Scale (RRS). According to Treynor
et al. (Cognitive Therapy and Research 27:247–259, 2003), the RRS contains two subscales, reflecting two different rumination subcomponents: brooding and reflection. The present
study examined the psychometric properties of the RRS in two samples (N = 432 and N = 407). Based on a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), results confirmed that a two-dimensional model with brooding and reflection
factors provided an adequate fit to the data. Reliability, convergent and discriminant validity of the rumination subcomponents
were appropriate. Furthermore, brooding but not reflection predicted depressive symptoms prospectively, even when accounting
for concurrent depressive feelings. The results provide the first confirmatory factor-analytical support for the widely assumed
two-factor model of the RRS and add to the accumulating body of evidence supporting the multidimensional nature of depressive
rumination. 相似文献

The present research investigates the relationship between anxiety and the religiosity dimensions that Wulff (Psychology of religion: classic and contemporary views, Wiley, New York, 1991; Psychology of religion. Classic and contemporary views, Wiley, New York, 1997; Psychologia religii. Klasyczna i współczesna, Wydawnictwo Szkolne i Pedagogiczne, Warszawa, 1999) described as Exclusion vs. Inclusion of Transcendence and Literal vs. Symbolic. The researchers used the Post-Critical Belief scale (Hutsebaut in J Empir Theol 9(2):48–66, 1996; J Empir Theol 10(1):39–54, 1997) to measure Wulff’s religiosity dimensions and the IPAT scale (Krug et al. 1967) to measure anxiety. Results from an adult sample (N = 83) suggest that three dimensions show significant relations with anxiety. Orthodoxy correlated negatively with suspiciousness (L) and positively with guilt proneness (O) factor—in the whole sample. Among women, Historical Relativism negatively correlated with suspiciousness (L), lack of integration (Q3), general anxiety and covert anxiety. Among men, Historical Relativism positively correlated with tension (Q4) and emotional instability (C), general anxiety, covert anxiety and overt anxiety. External Critique was correlated with suspiciousness (L) by men. 相似文献

We examined differences among 158 children, 44 with selective mutism (SM; M = 8.2 years, SD = 3.4 years), 65 with mixed anxiety (MA; M = 8.9 years, SD = 3.2 years), and 49 community controls (M = 7.7 years, SD = 2.6 years) on primary caregiver, teacher, and child reports of behavioral and socio-emotional functioning. Children with
SM were rated lower than controls on a range of social skills, but the SM and MA groups did not significantly differ on many
of the social skills and anxiety measures. However, children with SM were rated higher than children with MA and controls
on social anxiety. Findings suggest that SM may be conceptualized as an anxiety disorder, with primary deficits in social
functioning and social anxiety. This interpretation supports a more specific classification of SM as an anxiety disorder for
future diagnostic manuals than is currently described in the literature. The present findings also have implications for clinical
practice, whereby social skills training merits inclusion in intervention for children with anxiety disorders as well as children
with SM. 相似文献

The Beck Self-Concept Inventory for Youth (BYI-S; Beck et al. in Manual for the Beck Youth Inventories of Emotional and Social
Impairment, 2001) was administered to 100 adolescents (12–17 years old) who experienced sexual abuse. An iterated principal-factor analysis
found that the BYI-S represented two highly correlated (r = .53) factors corresponding to the Self-Esteem and Competency dimensions that Steer, Kumar, Beck, and Beck (J Psychopathol Behav Assess 27:123–131, 2005) found with child psychiatric outpatients. Item analyses were used to derive two six-item subscales measuring Self-Esteem
and Competency that had coefficient αs > .80. The Self-Concept total and subscale scores were differentially correlated with various psychosocial characteristics
of the youth. Low Self-Esteem scores were associated with total number of posttraumatic symptoms and self-reported anger,
whereas low Competency scores were related to externalizing behavior problems. The BYI-S was discussed as being a useful instrument
for assessing the self-concepts of youth who have experienced sexual abuse. 相似文献

Depression and Social Anxiety in Children: Differential Links with Coping Strategies 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Mark Wright Robin Banerjee Willemijn Hoek Carolien Rieffe Sheida Novin 《Journal of abnormal child psychology》2010,38(3):405-419
Strategies that children use for coping with stressors are known to be related to emotional adjustment, but not enough is
understood about specific links with social anxiety and depression. The present investigation tested differentiated associations
of social anxiety and depression with specific types of coping strategies, and evaluated the direction of these associations
over time. In Study 1, 404 children aged 8–13 years completed a coping scale modified from Kochendefer-Ladd and Skinner (Developmental Psychology 38:267-278, 2002) in order to evaluate factor structure and subscale internal consistency. In Study 2, 270 8–11-year-old children completed depression and social anxiety scales, a sociometric survey, and the coping scale from
Study 1, with a follow-up timepoint 9 months later. In Study 1, factor analysis revealed six internally consistent coping subscales. In Study 2, social anxiety and depression were found to have distinctive longitudinal associations with subsequent coping strategies.
Decreased problem-solving, social support-seeking, and distraction were uniquely predicted by depression but not by social
anxiety. Internalising coping was a stronger outcome of social anxiety, and increased externalising was uniquely predicted
by depression. There was also some evidence for a moderating role of peer relations. However, none of the coping strategies
predicted changes in depression or social anxiety over the two timepoints. These results highlight the impact that emotional
adjustment may have on children’s coping strategies, and clarify important distinctions between social anxiety and depression
in relation to coping. 相似文献

The Revised Child Anxiety and Depression Scale—Parent Version (RCADS-P) is a 47-item parent-report questionnaire of youth
anxiety and depression, with scales corresponding to the DSM-IV categories of Separation Anxiety Disorder, Social Phobia,
Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Panic Disorder, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, and Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). The
RCADS-P is currently the only parent-report questionnaire that concurrently assesses youth symptomatology of individual anxiety
disorders as well as depression in accordance with DSM-IV nosology. The present study examined the psychometric properties of the RCADS-P in a large (N = 490), clinic-referred sample of youths. The RCADS-P demonstrated favorable psychometric properties, including high internal
consistency, convergent/divergent validity, as well as strong discriminant validity—evidencing an ability to discriminate
between anxiety and depressive disorders, as well as between the targeted anxiety disorders. Support for the DSM-related six-factor
RCADS-P structure was also evidenced. This structure demonstrated superior fit to a recently suggested alternative to the
DSM-IV classification of anxiety and affective disorders—namely, the MDD/GAD “distress” factor. 相似文献

The study used multiple-group confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and multiple indicators multiple causes (MIMIC) procedures
to examine the measurement and construct equivalencies for father and mother ratings of ADHD symptoms, recoded as binary scores.
Fathers (N = 387) and mothers (N = 411) rated their primary school-aged children on the Disruptive Behavior Rating Scale (Barkley & Murphy, 1998). For the multiple-group CFA analyses, the results involving differences in practical fit indices supported full measurement
and construct equivalencies, whereas the chi-square difference test showed lack of equivalency in five symptoms for factor
loadings, four symptoms for error variance, and the variance and mean scores for the hyperactivity-impulsivity factor. For
the MIMIC analyses, six symptoms lacked equivalency for thresholds. These findings extend existing data in this area. The
theoretical, psychometric and clinical implications of the findings are discussed. 相似文献

This study examined the associations between clinical anxiety, domains of emotional intelligence (EI), and three clinician-rated
indices of maladjustment. Of key interest was whether social phobia (SP) is unique among anxiety disorders in being characterized
by lower levels of Interpersonal and, particularly, Intrapersonal EI, and whether these differentially predict maladjustment.
Individuals with SP (n = 169) obsessive-compulsive disorder (n = 65) and panic disorder (n = 64), and nonclinical controls (n = 169) completed the short form self-report Emotional Quotient Inventory (EQ-i: S). All anxiety disorder groups showed lower
total EI than controls, and differed among themselves with the SP group displaying the lowest levels of total EI and lower
scores on two EQ-i:S subscales (Interpersonal and, more robustly, Intrapersonal). The Intrapersonal dimension alone predicted
all indices of greater maladjustment in the SP group. These findings indicate a negative relationship between anxiety disorders
and EI, and reaffirm the foremost link between Intrapersonal EI and SP and its functional outcomes. 相似文献
