In light of new research findings about the efficacy of psychodynamic treatment for panic disorder and agoraphobia, it seems a prudent time to carefully address psychoanalytic thinking about the treatment of agoraphobia.

The Placebo Effect in Agoraphobia

The Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease, 1987
This paper presents two sets of data that suggests a weak but specific placebo response in agoraphobia. First, analyses in 20 agoraphobic patients given single-blind placebo over a 2-week period, without the customary confound of instructions for exposure to phobic situations, revealed a statistically significant reduction in panic and phobic symptoms.

Agoraphobia and Melancholia

Journal of the American Psychoanalytic Association, 2015

The experimental analysis of agoraphobia

Behaviour Research and Therapy, 1984
Abstract A concerted move towards the use of experimental analyses is proposed. It is suggested that our understanding of agoraphobia can best be advanced by taking this step. The argument in support of such a move is illustrated and developed in respect of the role of safety signals in maintaining and influencing agoraphobic behaviour.
