Anxiety sensitivity (AS) is composed of three lower-order dimensions, cognitive concerns, physical concerns, and social concerns. We examined the relations between AS dimensions using a more adequate assessment of subscales (ASI-3) than has previously been used, and measures of anxiety and mood disorders as well as suicidal ideation in a sample of 256 (M age = 37.10 years, SD = 16.40) treatment-seeking individuals using structural equation modeling. AS cognitive concerns was uniquely associated with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), major depressive disorder (MDD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and suicidal ideation. AS physical concerns was uniquely associated with OCD, social anxiety disorder (SAD), panic disorder (PD), and specific phobia. AS social concerns was uniquely associated with SAD, GAD, OCD, and MDD. These results highlight the importance of considering the lower-order AS dimensions when examining the relations between AS and psychopathology.
焦虑敏感（AS）由三个较低阶的维度组成，分别是认知关注、身体关注和社交关注。我们使用了一种比以往更充分的亚量表评估（ASI-3）来研究这些维度之间的关系，并在一个 256 名（M 年龄=37.10 岁，SD=16.40 岁）寻求治疗的个体样本中，使用结构方程模型来评估焦虑和心境障碍以及自杀意念的测量。AS 认知关注与广泛性焦虑障碍（GAD）、强迫症（OCD）、重度抑郁症（MDD）、创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）和自杀意念有独特的关联。AS 身体关注与 OCD、社交焦虑障碍（SAD）、惊恐障碍（PD）和特定恐惧症有独特的关联。AS 社交关注与 SAD、GAD、OCD 和 MDD 有独特的关联。这些结果强调了在研究 AS 与精神病理学之间的关系时，考虑 AS 的较低阶维度的重要性。
