Current issues in the assessment of anxiety in children and adolescents: A developmental perspective
Campbell, Marilyn A. & Rapee, Ronald M. (1996) Current issues in the assessment of anxiety in children and adolescents: A developmental perspective. Behaviour Change, 13(3), pp. 185-193.
Abstract
This paper describes some of the current problems with the assessment of children’s anxiety. The main assessment methods - structured clinical interview and self-report - often have problems with validity and reliability while less frequently used measures, such as physiological recording, behavioural observation, and thought-listing also have their attendant difficulties. Possible ways of reducing some of these problems using a developmental perspective are discussed.
