This study explored the prevalence of social phobia (SP) in the general population of Iran, the sociodemographic characteristics of subjects with SP, and its comorbidity with the other lifetime psychiatric disorders. Our study was part of the nationwide study on the prevalence of psychiatric disorders in Iran. Overall, 25,180 Iranian subjects, age 18 years and over, from urban and rural areas of Iran were selected by a clustered random sampling method and interviewed face-to-face by 250 trained clinical psychologists using DSM-IV diagnostic criteria. Out of 12,398,235 households, 7,795 households in the form of 1,559 clusters of five households were selected. The statistical framework was based on the household lists available from the Department of Health in the provinces. The response rate was 90%. The lifetime prevalence of SP was 0.82%. The rate was 0.4% in males and 1.3% in females. The rate was higher in younger age groups and widows/widowers. It was not related to educational level and residential area. Specific phobia (66.7%), obsessive-compulsive disorder (17.4%), major depressive disorder (15%), and panic disorder (12.1%) were the most common lifetime psychiatric disorders among subjects with SP. The rate of SP in Iran is more similar to that in other Asian countries, and it is lower than that in Western countries. The rate of other psychiatric disorders among subjects with SP is more than that in the general population, and the most common psychiatric disorders were the other anxiety disorders and major depressive disorder.

“…In this study, 59% of the patients with generalized SAD had coincident psychiatric disorders, which is consistent with the findings of Gokalp et al [2001]. Forty-one percent of the SAD sample had depression; this is consistent with the reported prevalence, which ranges from 17 to 44% [Schneier et al, 1992;Stein et al, 1990;Weiller et al, 1996].…”

The purpose of this study was to estimate the prevalence of depression in patients with social anxiety disorder (SAD) and to assess the relationship between the severity of SAD symptoms and depression. Ninety-eight consecutive patients with generalized SAD according to DSM-IV criteria were included in a cross-sectional case-control study. Patients were referred to a psychiatric outpatient clinic in a general hospital in Saudi Arabia. The Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale was used to estimate the severity of SAD. Fifty-eight (59%) of the patients with SAD had another current psychiatric disorder. Forty (41%) patients had current depression, and 37 (92.5%) of them had it after SAD onset. Eleven of 16 patients with severe SAD (69%) had depression whereas only 29 of 82 of SAD patients with mild or moderate subtypes (35%) had depression. Patients with severe SAD were four times more likely to have depression than the patients with mild or moderate SAD even after controlling for confounding sociodemographic and clinical factors. Depression is common among patients with SAD, particularly the severe subtype. Early recognition and treatment of SAD, especially the severe subtype, may prevent the occurrence of depression. Prospective studies are needed to investigate the risk factors that may lead to depression in SAD.

“…We found a total of 46 studies in Medline, of which only four fulfilled our inclusion criteria: Chaleby and Raslam (1990), Heimberg et al (1997), Matsunaga et al (2001) and Gökalp et al (2001). No additional articles were identified, neither through the related articles (RAs) function of Medline nor by the PsychINFO and the LILACS searches.…”

Cross-cultural studies have much to teach clinicians and researchers alike about psychopathology in general and about social anxiety disorder (SAD) in particular. Unfortunately, little is known about the degree and the mechanisms through which cultural environment may influence clinical manifestations of SAD. Objective: Our objective was to identify culture-related clinical patterns in SAD and related disorders. Methods: We described socio-demographic and clinical characteristics of a sample of 62 adult outpatients with SAD seen at a university clinic for anxiety and depressive disorders in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and compared them with those reported in clinical samples from North America, Europe, Asia and Oceania identified through a systematic review in Medline, PsychINFO, and LILACS. Results: Our comparison of trans-cultural features of SAD lends partial support to Heimberg's (1997) contention that the majority of socio-demographic features and symptoms of this disorder are relatively independent of geographic and cultural differences. Conclusion: Patients with SAD were almost universally characterized by: 1) a predominance of males in clinical samples; 2) early onset of the disorder; 3) high educational attainment; and 4) great frequency of comorbidities. Key words: social anxiety disorder, clinical description, anxiety disorders, culture, cross-cultural comparison, cultural characteristics. ResumoEstudos transculturais têm muito a ensinar a clínicos e pesquisadores sobre psicopatologia, de modo geral, e transtorno de ansiedade social (TAS) especificamente. Infelizmente pouco se sabe a respeito do grau de influência e dos mecanismos através dos quais o meio cultural pode influenciar as manifestações clínicas do TAS. Objetivo: O presente estudo tem por objetivo identificar padrões clínicos associados à cultura no TAS e transtornos relacionados. Métodos: Foram descritas características clínicas e sociodemográficas de uma amostra de 62 pacientes adultos com TAS acompanhados ambulatorialmente no Programa de Ansiedade e Depressão da Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro. Essas características foram comparadas com aquelas de amostras clínicas de América do Norte, Europa, Ásia e Oceania identificadas através de revisão sistemática em Medline, PsychINFO e LILACS. Resultados: Nossa comparação de aspectos transculturais do TAS ratifica parcialmente o achado de Heimberg (1997) de que a maioria dos sintomas e das características socioculturais desse transtorno é parcialmente independente de diferenças geográficas e culturais. Conclusão: Pacientes com TAS caracterizaram-se quase universalmente por: 1) predominância de homens nas amostras clínicas; 2) início precoce do transtorno; 3) alto nível educacional; e 4) grande prevalência de co-morbidades.
