Abstract
The present paper is a comprehensive review of the literature on the possible interactions between interpersonal, particularly marital factors on the one hand, and agoraphobic behavior on the other. First, some different theoretical formulations are described, followed by a discussion of reports and investigations concerning the agoraphobic's marital relationship. Then, attention is paid to those studies which examine the significance of marital factors in the outcome of exposure-treatment for agoraphobia. The remainder of this paper focuses on practical issues, suggestions, and warnings with respect to the different strategies for treating married agoraphobics. Finally, emphasis is given to methodological aspects of research needs in this area.
