Agoraphobia sufferers utilize distinct coping styles, including avoidant coping and self-vigilance, which correlate with increased symptom severity and anxiety levels. Effective coping strategies were also identified in this study of anxiety management.

Area of Science:

  • Psychology
  • Clinical Psychology
  • Anxiety Disorders

Background:

  • Agoraphobia is characterized by anxiety and panic symptoms.
  • Understanding coping mechanisms is crucial for managing agoraphobia.
  • Previous research has explored coping tactics in anxiety.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate coping styles used by agoraphobia sufferers.
  • To extend the Coping with Anxiety Questionnaire (CAQ) to include self-vigilance.
  • To examine the relationship between coping styles and symptom severity.

Main Methods:

  • Factor analysis of questionnaire data from 112 agoraphobia and panic self-help group members.
  • Participants completed the Beck Anxiety Inventory, Agoraphobia Severity Scale, and a modified CAQ.

  • Coping styles were identified through factor analysis of CAQ items.

    • Main Results:

    • Three coping styles were identified: Effective Coping, Avoidant Coping, and Self-vigilance.
    • Avoidant Coping and Self-vigilance were correlated with higher levels of agoraphobic symptoms.
    • These two styles also correlated with increased anxiety levels.

    Conclusions:

    • Findings support previous research on coping strategies in anxiety.
    • Results align with cognitive therapy models regarding self-vigilance in anxiety disorders.
    • Identified coping styles offer insights into managing agoraphobia symptoms.
