Anxiety and Anxiety Disorders
• Anxiety: Vague feeling of apprehension or nervousness
• Anxiety disorder: where anxiety begins to take control and dominate a person’s life
![Page 8: Thinking About Psychology: The Science of Mind and Behavior 2e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062807/568150a9550346895dbebd98/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Types of Anxiety Disorders
• Anxiety disorders are divided into:– Generalized Anxiety Disorder (disruptive levels of
persistent, unexplained feelings of apprehension & tenseness)
– Panic Disorder (sudden bouts of intense, unexplained panic)
– Phobia (disruptive, irrational fear of objects or situations)
– Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (unwanted, repetitive thoughts & actions)
– Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (reliving a severely upsetting event in unwanted, recurring memories & dreams)

Generalized Anxiety Disorder
• An anxiety disorder characterized by disruptive levels of persistent, unexplained feelings of apprehension and tenseness– Until pharmaceutical companies began a hard-
sell TV ad campaign for drugs to combat it, many people had never heard of it.
– Most of us have the symptoms they identify– Effexor and Paxil, Prozac and Zolof are all used
to treat GAD and major depression; also social phobia & panic disorder
![Page 12: Thinking About Psychology: The Science of Mind and Behavior 2e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062807/568150a9550346895dbebd98/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Symptoms of Generalized Anxiety
• Must have at least three of the following:– Restlessness– Feeling on edge– Difficulty concentrating/mind going
blank– Irritability– Muscle Tension– Sleep Disturbance

Panic Disorder
• An anxiety disorder characterized by sudden bouts of intense, unexplained anxiety

Phobia
• An anxiety disorder characterized by disruptive, irrational fears of specific objects or situations
• The fear must be both irrational and disruptive.– They are considered anxiety disorders because
they focus general feelings of anxiety onto a fear object or situation.
– Names are formed by combining the Greek word for the object with phobia (which is the Greek word for fear).

Biological Factors
• Hereditary factors may result in a predisposition for developing anxiety disorders (fearful parents are likely to have fearful children, though the fear, itself, can be different). Twin studies.
• Brain functions appear to be different in an anxiety disorder patient *more activity in the frontal lobe
• Evolutionary factors may lead to anxiety disorders * dangerous animals, heights, storms and threats – people who didn’t have a healthy dose of fear didn’t survive!

Learning Factors
• Through classical conditioning people may associate fear with an object (Little Albert, infant who learned to fear white rats (and all soft animals), paired the rat with a loud noise)).
• Observational learning--watching another experiencing fearfulness--may result in developing fear (parent is afraid of thunder and reacts, the child may develop the same fear).
• Fear of an object may be reinforced when by avoiding the feared objects (afraid of heights? Can reduce the fear by avoiding heights, so will avoid heights in the future).
![Page 32: Thinking About Psychology: The Science of Mind and Behavior 2e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062807/568150a9550346895dbebd98/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The Mind
• Watch “The Mind” – Mood Disorders: Hereditary Factors
• Complete “The Fear Survey”– What would life be like without fear? Can you
come up with some scenarios where fear is detrimental and useful to daily life? If fear weren’t an issue, how would those situations be different?

Mania
• Period of abnormally high emotion and activity– When I start going into a high, I no longer feel like an
ordinary housewife. Instead, I feel I am my most creative self. I can write poetry easily. I can compose melodies without effort.

I’ve lost weight and feel healthy, and I like myself. I would like to help people with problems similar to mine so they won’t feel hopeless (587).

will have a 50% chance; bipolar? 70%.
• Depressed individuals tend to have depressed brains.
– PET scans indicate less activity during periods of depression.
