Thirty-eight panic disorder and 48 generalised anxiety disorder subjects were asked to complete a number of questionnaires aimed at developing a general clinical picture of the two disorders. The results indicated that panic disorder is characterised by a sudden onset around the mid- to late-20s age group and is distinguished by symptoms which are chiefly hyperventilatory in nature and are accompanied by thoughts of serious physical or mental illness. Generalised anxiety disorder is characterised by a gradual onset of symptoms. Somatic symptoms associated with this disorder are generally accompanied by a realisation that the symptoms are the result of anxiety and are harmless. The two groups did not appear to differ greatly on a number of other scales except that the generalised anxiety disorder subjects scored higher on measures of manifest anxiety and social phobia.

Psychometrics in Temporomandibular Disorders: An overview

The purpose of this paper is to review the methods and results of psychometric testings in temporomandibular disorders (TMD) during the past decade. Assessments of psychologic and behavioral factors have been performed for various reasons. The results are often ambiguous and comparisons troublesome. No encompassing psychologic TMD profile has been identified, but small elevations in anxiety, depression, somatization, and stress are often reported; they may be cause or effect. Subcategorization of the patients into diagnostic subgroups suggests that psychologic differences exist but may be small; myogenic patients may have more psychologic difficulties than 'joint' patients. More distinct, robust psychologic subsets of patients, unrelated to the structural diagnosis, have been identified by means of clustering techniques. Irrespective of clinical signs, a certain proportion of the patients are psychologically distressed, whereas others easily adapt to the pain and dysfunction. No single variable has been identified that can predict outcome or compliance. Several psychometric instruments are described.

“…Considering the possible associated changes in general personality adjustment subsequent to treatment, an initially high level of manifest anxiety level (above 80th percentile) fell to below the "population" modal response of 13 (Taylor, 1953). Recognising the high possibility of regression toward the mean in observing only a single case, the 16PF second order factors still appear to shift sufficiently to attract attention as possible indicators of a change toward a more adaptive level of personal functioning.…”

Homosexuality Treated Adventitiously in a Stuttering Therapy Program: A Case Report Presenting a Heterophobic Orientation

The heterophobic orientation toward treatment of homosexuality is discussed. A case report is presented where homosexuality apparently "spontaneously remitted" and heterosexuality was instated while the patient underwent treatment for stuttering. The change in sexual orientation is interpreted as possibly adventitiously induced through generalization effects from treatment of the relevant phobic aspects of the stuttering problem to the associated social aspects of the sexual problem.
