TL;DR: Taking into account the dimensional structure ofpanic attack symptoms may help to increase the specificity of the associations between the experience of panic attack symptoms and various panic related constructs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Validation of the German fear of pain questionnaire in a sample of children with mixed chronic pain conditions.
TL;DR: The construct validity of the translated German fear of pain questionnaire for children (GFOPQ‐C) was determined in a sample of children with mixed chronic pain disorders by testing the underlying factor structure, and its psychometric properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dimensional structure of the Social Interaction Anxiety Scale according to the analysis of data obtained with a German version.
TL;DR: The findings confirm that three negatively keyed items are dubious indicators of social interaction anxiety and only the remaining 17 items should be used for this purpose in future studies.
