This study found no significant link between attribution style and panic disorder development. The Attribution Style Questionnaire (ASQ) may also be unsuitable for assessing panic disorder patients.

Area of Science:

  • Psychology
  • Psychiatry
  • Clinical Psychology

Background:

  • Panic disorder is a debilitating condition.
  • Attributional style, or how individuals explain events, is a potential factor in anxiety disorders.
  • Previous research suggests cognitive factors may influence panic disorder development.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the relationship between attributional style and the development of panic disorder.
  • To assess the suitability of the Attribution Style Questionnaire (ASQ) for patients with panic disorder.

Main Methods:

  • Administered the Attribution Style Questionnaire (ASQ) to two groups: 28 subjects with panic disorder with agoraphobia and 21 subjects with other anxiety disorders who had experienced a panic attack.
  • Conducted a factor analysis of the ASQ results within the study population.

Main Results:

  • No significant differences in attributional style were found between the panic disorder group and the other anxiety disorder group.
  • Factor analysis suggested the ASQ may not be appropriate for assessing patients with panic disorder.
  • Cognitive style, as measured by the ASQ, did not appear to predispose individuals to panic disorders.

Conclusions:

  • Attributional style, as measured by the ASQ, does not seem to be a predisposing factor for panic disorder.
  • The ASQ may have limitations in assessing cognitive style in panic disorder patients.
  • Further research into alternative hypotheses for panic disorder development is warranted.
