J Nerv Ment Dis. 1987 Jan;175(1):49-51. doi: 10.1097/00005053-198701000-00008.

Abstract

Differential response patterns to the SCL-90R in patients with social phobia and panic disorder are presented. The differences are discussed in light of Liebowitz's distinction between primary social phobia and the secondary social fears of panic disorder patients. Treatment implications are also discussed.
