Childhood physical and sexual abuse in patients with anxiety disorders and in a community sample
MB Stein, JR Walker, G Anderson, AL Hazen, CA Ross, G Eldridge and DR Forde
Department of Psychiatry, University of California at San Diego, La Jolla 92093-0603, USA.
OBJECTIVE: The authors investigated whether histories of childhood physical
or sexual abuse were reported more frequently in a clinical sample of
patients with anxiety disorders than in a matched community comparison
sample. METHOD: A standardized interview with an extensive series of trauma
probes was administered to 125 patients with DSM-IV anxiety disorders
(panic disorder, social phobia, or obsessive- compulsive disorder) and to
125 age- and gender-matched subjects drawn from a random community sample.
RESULTS: Childhood physical abuse was higher among both men (15.5%) and
women (33.3%) with anxiety disorders than among comparison subjects (8.1%).
Childhood sexual abuse was higher among women with anxiety disorders
(45.1%) than among comparison women (15.4%) and was higher among women with
panic disorder (60.0%) than among women with other anxiety disorders
(30.8%). CONCLUSIONS: These findings confirm the association between
anxiety disorders and reported childhood physical and sexual abuse and
extend earlier findings by pointing to a particular association between
sexual abuse and panic disorder in women.
