Physiologische Maße der Angst und Vermeidung

  • Chapter
Angstdiagnostik

  • 1139 Accesses

Zusammenfassung

Physiologische Reaktionen sind eine wesentliche Komponente der Gefühle und damit auch der Angst. Doch hat sich ihre Messung bei den verschiedenen Angststörungen als unterschiedlich ergiebig erwiesen. In diesem Kapitel werden anfangs einige grundlegende Konzepte der Psychophysiologie vorgestellt, die bei der Interpretation physiologischer Daten zu berücksichtigen sind. Darauf folgt ein kurzer Überblick über die physiologischen Maße, die bei Angststörungen am häufigsten erhoben werden und schließlich die Beschreibung von Befunden einzelner Störungsbereiche. Eine Beschreibung von apparativen und messtechnischen Einzelheiten würden den Rahmen dieses Kapitels sprengen und kann statt dessen Lehrbüchern der Psychophysiologie entnommen werden (z.B. Schandry 1989; Andreassi 2000).
