[Panic disorder. Recent concepts of etiology and diagnosis].
In the light of recent research, panic disorder, for many years considered to have biological etiology, seems to be psychologically conditioned. The psychological part of etiology consists of distorted cognitive interpretation of somatic and emotional symptoms, which lead to the phenomenon of "fear of fear". "Fear of fear" reinforces vulnerability to experience subsequent attacks and intensity of their symptoms. The research work described in the article changed the diagnostic attitude towards panic disorder, both in DSM IV (APA 1994) and ICD-10 (WHO 1994). That change urges to search for new models of psychotherapy, specific to panic disorder.
