Anxiety problems. 1.3.1. Anxiety in the general population Anxiety disorders are one of the highly common psychiatric conditions in children and adolescents, with a lifetime prevalence of between 17 and 27% in the general population (Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxx, & Xxxxxx, 2005; Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, & Xxx, 2006). Anxiety traits can emerge in the preschool period, persist or recur throughout the development (Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, & Xxxxx, 2011; Xxxxxxx et al., 2016). In DSM-5 (American Psychiatric Association, 2013), the definition of anxiety disorders involves three common facets: excessive fear, anxiety and associated behavioural disturbances (e.g., worry). Fear refers to a perceived impending threat and it is consistent with physiological arousals (such as fight-or-flight responses), thoughts of immediate danger and contact avoidant behaviours. On the other hand, anxiety refers to the perception of a threat that is likely to happen in the future, that is accompanied by physical reactions (e.g., intense muscle tension), cautious avoidance and hypervigilance for preparation of this future threat. Anxiety and fear are typically adaptive responses that are executed to avoid behaviours about threatening situations. Both become maladaptive when they start to interfere the daily functioning when the threat response occurs in the absence of any real threat and when they frequently occur with high severity in a persistent manner (American Psychiatric Association, 2013). The distinction between adaptive and pathological anxiety in childhood may not be easy since children have fears and anxieties as part of the developmental process and childhood fears are transient for some cases (Beesdo, Knappe, & Xxxx, 2009; Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx, Diamantopoulou, & Xxxxx, 2013). For example, separation anxiety is highly observed among 12-18 months old infants but becomes less frequent in later childhood. However, when the anxiety interferes with the daily functioning, it may form a pathologic representation in childhood. In DSM-5 (American Psychiatric Association, 2013) anxiety disorder is a broad category, including the following disorders: separation anxiety disorder, selective mutism, specific phobia, social anxiety disorder (social phobia), panic disorder panic attack specifier, agoraphobia, generalised anxiety disorder, substance/medication- induced anxiety disorder, anxiety disorder due to another medical condition and other specified anxiety disorder unspecified anxiety disorder.
