Abstract

AbstractThe purpose of this paper is to discuss the validity of the DSM‐diagnosis agoraphobia without history of panic disorder. The question posed is whether agoraphobia without history of panic disorder is a separate entity, or whether it is related to panic disorder. Research papers, including population‐based as well as clinical studies, have been reviewed. The inconclusiveness of the research together with methodological deficits do not constitute sufficient evidence to conclude that agoraphobia without history of panic disorder is a separate category.
