Resumo de Recurso
Classification & Diagnosis of phobias
Clinical characteristics
Diagnosis
Fear persistent & excessive
Phobic stimulus causes an immediate response
Individual is aware their fear is irrational
Phobia interferes with daily life
Phobia has existed for more than 6 months
DSM & ICD used for classification
3 types of phobia
Specific phobia - fear of an object
Social phobia - fear of a social situation
Agoraphobia - fear of situations where escape may be difficult/open spaces
Reliability
Reliability - the consistency of a measuring instrument
Inter-rater reliability - how consistent different clinicians diagnosis is
Skyre et al - three clinicians assessed 54 patients using the Structured Clinical Interview (SCID-I) Inter-rater agreement +.72
semi-structured interview - extensive training
Kendler et al - low retest reliability due to poor recall or exaggeration of fears
May also be due to different clinicians seeing different things as significant
Test-retest reliability - used to check external reliability. Same test given on different occasions
Hiller et al - satisfactory - exellent diagnosis agreement in test-retest using Munich Diagnostic Checklist (MDC)
Validity
Validity - extent that a diagnosis represents something real & distinct
Research requires high validity assessment methods else the findings will have low validity
Comorbidity decreases usefulness of diagnostic categories
Kendler et al - high comorbidity between social phobias & animal phobias
Eyesenk - up to 66% diagnosed with one anxiety disorder have another
Concurrent validity - measures the validity of a classification method comparing it to an existing one
Taijn-kyofusho (TKS) Japanese phobia of embarrassing someone in public. Not a British phobia. Cultural differences
Construct validity - sees if individuals with key behaviours are diagnosed as phobic
Someone with social phobia underestimates their social ability
