Abstract
18 agoraphobics with panic attacks had significantly higher scores on the Willoughby Personality Schedule, a measure of social-evaluative anxiety, than 18 matched patients with panic disorder. Results are compatible with the position that hypersensitivity to criticism is associated with and may contribute to the development of agoraphobia following panic attacks, but further research is needed.
