Assessing Cognitions in Anxious Children

Greta Francis

Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic

This article describes the assessment of cognitions in anxious children. As empirical investigations of childhood anxiety are few, the role of cognitions has received little attention. As such, a brief, general overview of the principles and procedures of cognitive assessment is provided. This is followed by a review of the available studies of cognitive assessment in anxious children. Because no clinic-referred populations of anxious children have been studied, this review focuses on the assessment of cognitions in socially withdrawn, fearful children and test-anxious children. Finally, two areas for future research are highlighted: psychometric investigation of cognitive assessment techniques and cognitive assessment of clinic-referred, anxiety-disordered children.
