Popis: | For many years researchers have relied on the retrospective reports of adult panickers for information about panic in children and adolescents. However, over the past decade a number of studies have directly assessed panic in children and adolescents. Our review of normative and clinical studies shows important developmental differences in the prevalence of panic attacks and panic disorder. Consistent with these findings, some researchers have questioned whether children have the cognitive capacity to experience true, spontaneous panic attacks. Methodological issues associated with the study of panic in children and adolescents are briefly discussed. |
