Abstrakt: Abstract: Although awareness of postpartum depression (PPD) has increased, postpartum anxiety disorders (PPA) remain overlooked. Understanding women's knowledge of PPA and their effective treatments is needed given the underutilization of treatment and associated negative health outcomes. Two internet-based studies (OSF [https://osf.io/3fjvr] preregistered follow-up) were conducted to identify women's knowledge and familiarity with PPD and PPA and knowledge of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Study 1 revealed that women who were planning to become pregnant, pregnant, or recently postpartum (N = 218) were less familiar with PPA than PPD and had limited familiarity with CBT. Women also reported low screening rates for PPA and low perceived treatment seeking for women with PPA and PPD. Study 2 (N = 290) revealed that recently postpartum women recognized fewer symptoms and recommended treatment less often for PPA than PPD and had limited CBT knowledge. Overall, results indicate limited knowledge of PPA compared with PPD, indicating a need for targeted information to perinatal women.
