Area of Science:

  • Psychology
  • Clinical Psychology
  • Social Psychology

Background:

  • Assertiveness is vital for social adaptation, involving complex psychological processes.
  • Impaired assertiveness is frequently observed in patients with anxious, depressive, and personality disorders.
  • Understanding assertiveness is key to addressing various psychological impairments.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To measure assertiveness in patients with anxiety disorders.
  • To explore the relationship between assertiveness and emotional factors like depression, anxiety, and self-esteem.
  • To advocate for a more discriminant approach to assessing assertiveness.

Main Methods:

  • A population of 33 patients with anxiety disorders (without major depression) was studied.
  • The Rathus Assertiveness Schedule was used for assertiveness evaluation.
  • The Beck Depression Inventory, Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and Coopersmith Inventory assessed emotional factors.

Main Results:

  • The global assertiveness score did not show specific correlations with all measured emotional factors.
  • This suggests that assertiveness is a multidimensional construct.
  • Emotional factors may influence assertiveness in complex, non-specific ways.

Conclusions:

  • Assertiveness is a multidimensional function with behavioral, cognitive, and emotional components.
  • A more discriminant approach is needed to assess assertiveness effectively.
  • Future assessments should differentiate between behavioral/cognitive skills and emotional components.
