Among Cambodian refugees with panic disorder (N = 208), we performed two factor analyses, one with the ASI, another with an Augmented ASI (consisting of the 16-item ASI supplemented with a 9-item addendum that assesses additional Cambodian concerns about anxiety-related sensations). The principal component analysis of the ASI yielded a 3-factor solution (I, "Weak Heart Concerns"; II, "Social Concerns"; III, "Control Concerns"); the Augmented ASI, a 4-factor solution: I, "Wind Attack Concerns"; II, "Weak Heart Concerns"; III, "Social Concerns"; and IV, "Control Concerns." The item clustering within the factor solution of both the ASI and Augmented ASI illustrates the role of cultural syndromes in generating fear of mental and bodily events.
在患有惊恐障碍的柬埔寨难民(N = 208)中,我们进行了两项因素分析,一项使用ASI,另一项使用增强版ASI(由16项ASI加上一个9项附录组成,该附录评估柬埔寨人对焦虑相关感觉的其他担忧)。ASI的主成分分析产生了一个三因素解决方案(I,“心脏虚弱担忧”;II,“社会担忧”;III,“控制担忧”);增强版ASI产生了一个四因素解决方案:I,“风袭担忧”;II,“心脏虚弱担忧”;III,“社会担忧”;IV,“控制担忧”。ASI和增强版ASI因素解决方案中的项目聚类说明了文化综合征在引发对心理和身体事件恐惧方面的作用。
