Neural Pathways and CBT for Anxiety Disorders

The November, 2002 edition of Biological Psychiatry (of all places*) is a special edition on "Learning and Unlearning Fears: Preparedness, Neural Pathways, and Patients." It includes a number of articles which look quite promising:

Phobias and Preparedness: The Selective, Automatic, and Encapsulated Nature of Fear. by Mineka & Ohman

Anxiety Sensitivity by McNally

The Development and Modification of Tempramental Risk for Anxiety Disorders: Prevention of a Lifetime of Anxiety? by Rapee

Startle Reactivity and Anxiety Disorders: Aversive Conditioning, Context, and Neurobiology by Grillon

Context, Ambiguity, and Unlearning: Sources of Relapse after Behavioral Extinction by Bouton

Context in the Clinic: How Well do Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies and Medications Work in Combination? by Foa, Franklin, and Moser

The Role of Glutamate and Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid in Fear Extinction: Clinical Implications for exposure Therapy by Davis & Myers

Molecular Targets in the Treatment of Anxiety by Kent, Mathew & Gorman.

*Actually, I've only seen two editions of Biological Psychology and both have had some very interesting articles.
