Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 21-4 (November 2009) . - p.1065-1082 Titre : A functionalist perspective on social anxiety and avoidant personality disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Peter LAFRENIERE, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.1065-1082 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A developmental–evolutionary perspective is used to synthesize basic research from the neurosciences, ethology, genetics, and developmental psychology into a unified framework for understanding the nature and origins of social anxiety and avoidant personality disorder. Evidence is presented that social anxiety disorder (social phobia) and avoidant personality disorder may be alternate conceptualizations of the same disorder because they have virtually the same symptoms and genetic basis, and respond to the same pharmacologic and psychotherapeutic interventions. A functionalist perspective on social anxiety is formulated to (a) explain the origins of normative states of anxiety, (b) outline developmental pathways in the transition from normative anxiety to social anxiety and avoidant personality disorders, and (c) account for the processes leading to gender-differentiated patterns of anxiety-related disorders after puberty.
