Vulnerability to Height Fears  (1996)
Abstract Header
Contemporary models of specific phobia emphasize the interaction of vulnerability factors in the development of phobias. Using questionnaire measures of space and motion discomfort (SMD), anxiety sensitivity (ASI), and acrophobia in a group of college females, a multiple regression analysis showed that the combined SMD and ASI factor accounted for a greater proportion of variance in acrophobia scores that either SMD or ASI separately. Implications for understanding etiological models of specific phobia are discussed.
