In order to assess some psychometric properties of Marks & Mathews' (1979) short Fear Questionnaire, a Dutch translation of this form was administered to 143 phobic outpatients: 100 women and 43 men. There was a special interest in assessing validity by comparing the scores of agoraphobics, social phobics and simple phobics. The findings were that all scales have sufficient internal consistency, although the Total Phobia scale does not seem to add meaningful information to its subscales. Most scales are significantly related to neuroticism, and the Social Phobia subscale is strongly related to social anxiety. The Agoraphobia and Social Phobia subscales discriminate between categories of phobics in the expected way. For the Blood/Injury subscale the relevant comparisons could not be made. The data presented in this study can be used to develop FQ norms for phobic patients.
为了评估马克斯和马修斯（1979年）编制的简短恐惧问卷的一些心理测量特性，我们将该问卷的荷兰语译本施测于143名恐惧障碍门诊患者，其中100名女性，43名男性。通过比较广场恐惧症患者、社交恐惧症患者和单纯恐惧症患者的得分来评估效度，这一点受到特别关注。研究结果表明所有分量表都具有足够的内部一致性，尽管恐惧总分量表似乎并没有为其子量表增添有意义的信息。大多数分量表与神经质显著相关，社交恐惧症分量表与社交焦虑密切相关。广场恐惧症和社交恐惧症分量表以预期的方式区分了不同类型的恐惧症患者。对于血液/损伤分量表，无法进行相关比较。本研究中呈现的数据可用于制定恐惧障碍患者的恐惧问卷常模。
