Forty-three outpatients with DSM-III-R (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 3rd Ed., revised; American Psychiatric Association, 1987) panic disorder were randomly assigned to receive 6 sessions of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), the same treatment but omitting the eye movement, or to a waiting list. Posttest comparisons showed EMDR to be more effective in alleviating panic and panic-related symptoms than the waiting-list procedure. Compared with the same treatment without the eye movement, EMDR led to greater improvement on 2 of 5 primary outcome measures at posttest. However, EMDR's advantages had dissipated 3 months after treatment, thereby failing to firmly support the usefulness of the eye movement component in EMDR treatment for panic disorder.
43名患有DSM-III-R（《精神疾病诊断与统计手册》第三版，修订版；美国精神病学协会，1987）惊恐障碍的门诊患者被随机分配接受6次眼动脱敏再处理疗法（EMDR）、相同但省略眼动环节的疗法或进入等待名单。测试后比较显示，与等待名单程序相比，EMDR在减轻惊恐及与惊恐相关症状方面更有效。与省略眼动环节的相同疗法相比，EMDR在测试后5项主要结果指标中的2项上带来了更大改善。然而，治疗3个月后，EMDR的优势消失，因此未能有力支持眼动环节在EMDR治疗惊恐障碍中的作用。
