lüll Childhood anxiety disorders: lessons from the literature Manassis KCan J Psychiatry 2000[Oct]; 45 (8): 724-30Studies of childhood anxiety disorders have increased in recent years, but the clinical implications of the work are sometimes difficult to discern. This paper reviews salient findings (related to the assessment and management of anxious children) published in the last 5 years. The high comorbidity among disorders, the occurrence of different disorders in the same child over time, recent changes in diagnostic categories, the availability of new anxiety measures, and poor correspondence between parent and child reports of symptoms all underscore the need for thorough assessment. Increasing evidence supports cognitive-behavioural treatments for anxiety disorders, alone or in combination with pharmacotherapy. Other important aspects of management suggested by developmental studies of anxious children include psychoeducation about constitutional factors in the development of anxiety, interventions to address parental anxiety, parenting advice regarding behaviour management and reduction of family conflict, and treatment of child impairment to decrease the risk of depression.
