Abstract

The study examined four competing cognitive vulnerability models of anxiety (i.e. Vulnerability to Harm-Schema Model, Looming Cognitive Style, Anxiety Sensitivity, and Fear of Negative Evolution.) Results revealed that these cognitive models significantly mediated the relationship between recollections of dysfunctional parenting and current anxiety. Implications and future research will be discussed.
