Demographic information

edit

Last few studies are much older (late 90s), are they as useful?

Diagnosis

edit

Could add ICD criteria Could add DSM-IV to 5 changes Maybe collapse less important/less ideal measures (eg: based on DSM-IV, not free measures) Maybe have references that indicate certain measures have good reliability and validity; currently only based on book Maybe link to explanations for reliability/validity information (HAVE A SEPARATE PAGE FOR ALL THE TERMS) If measures has PDF, link to home page of that measure instead of direct PDF; allows for linkage to multiple versions "Best recommended for" column should be deleted if it's not going to be fleshed out

Treatment

edit

Is this the right medication that should be listed? Specific dosage seems a lot and not applicable

Process and outcome measures

edit

Hard to explain table, could use some explaining

Demographic information

Dimensions of Sexual Orientation and the Prevalence of Mood and Anxiety Disorders in the United States: Found an article that provides info about prevalence of anxiety disorder for LGBTQs (Bostwick et al. , 2010)--Kateforay (discusscontribs) 23:39, 1 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

A Cross-Ethnic Comparison of Lifetime Prevalence Rates of Anxiety Disorders: Found a paper that uses national survey data to determine the lifetime prevalence of anxiety disorder of White Americans, African Americans, Asian Americans, and Hispanic Americans (Asnaani et al., 2010)--Kateforay (discusscontribs) 23:25, 1 March 2018 (UTC)Reply


Diagnosis

edit

Hard to find SCID diagnosis measures in PDF form that are consistent

Consider adding the GAD-7 Scale (https://www.integration.samhsa.gov/clinical-practice/GAD708.19.08Cartwright.pdf) Emileekruchten (discusscontribs) 22:32, 1 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Spanish Version for GAD-7 Scale as well (http://www.coloradohealthpartnerships.com/provider/integrated/GAD7-Spanish.pdf) Emileekruchten (discusscontribs) 22:45, 1 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Found screening scales called the K10 and K6 scales (aka Kessler Psychological Stress Scale) used by NHIS. It is available in a variety of different languages https://www.hcp.med.harvard.edu/ncs/k6_scales.php --Kateforay (discusscontribs) 23:12, 1 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Treatment

edit

Consider adding exposure therapy (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S088761850700103X) and modeling therapy to "Behavioral Interventions" Emileekruchten (discusscontribs) 23:36, 1 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

There are no references for "Combination Treatment"; add one or delete it Emileekruchten (discusscontribs) 23:38, 1 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Found a new type of treatment for GAD: Three-year follow-up and clinical implications of a mindfulness meditation-based stress reduction intervention in the treatment of anxiety disorders. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7649463 There was a significant reduction in symptoms and long-term effects --Kateforay (discusscontribs) 23:25, 1 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Process and outcome measures

edit

Removed: Recommended diagnostic instruments Anxiety Disorders Interview Schedule for Children/Parents (ADIS-C/P) Almost all available publications so far were evaluating the use of ADIS-C/P under the DSM-IV framework. Within those studies, ADIS-C/P demonstrated decent convergent and discriminant validity with other self-report anxiety measures such as the Multidimensional Anxiety Scale for Children (MASC; March et al., 1997; Wood et al., 2002). However, it is worth noting that MASC predicts GAD poorly (AUC ranges from .55 - .65; Van Gastel et al., 2008).

In addition to its concurrent validity, ADIS-C/P also demonstrated high interrater reliability between parents and children for general anxiety disorder (kappa = .8; Lyneham et al., 2007).
