Abstract EN
Background.
Many patients with panic disorder meet criteria for at least one other diagnosis, most commonly other anxiety or mood disorders.
Cognitive-behavioral therapy is the best empirically supported psychotherapy for panic disorder.
There is now evidence indicating that cognitive-behavioral therapy for panic disorder yields positive benefits upon comorbid disorders.
Objectives.
The present study aimed to examine the predictors of broad dimensions of psychopathology in panic disorder after cognitive-behavioral therapy.
Methods.
Two hundred patients affected by panic disorder were treated with manualized group cognitive-behavioral therapy.
We examined if the baseline personality dimensions of NEO Five Factor Index predicted the subscales of Symptom Checklist-90 Revised at endpoint using multiple regression analysis based on the intention-to-treat principle.
Results.
Conscientiousness score of NEO Five Factor Index at baseline was a predictor of four Symptom Checklist-90 Revised subscales including obsessive-compulsive (β=-0.15, P<0.01), depression (β=-0.13, P<0.05), phobic anxiety (β=-0.15, P<0.05), and Global Severity Index (β=-0.13, P<0.05).
Conclusion.
Conscientiousness at baseline may predict several dimensions of psychopathology in patients with panic disorder after cognitive-behavioral therapy.
For the purpose of improving a wide range of psychiatric symptoms with patients affected by panic disorder, it may be useful to pay more attention to this personal trait at baseline.
