Weaknesses
Response bias - inaccurate responses can distort results, eg: if a person has a bad day (cut their finger in the morning)
-
Issues and Debates
Reductionist - they only rely on a single quantitative measurement for phobias which is complex. No qualitative data of what it's like to have a phobia
Cultural bias - Cross cultural differences influence BIPI and GAD-7 results. Cultures that promote well-being and give reassurance to those around will have low rates of agoraphobia
Anxiety - frequent, persistent worry and apprehension about a perceived threat in the environment.
-
Phobia - extreme, irrational fear towards a stimulus and is disproportionate to the actual danger
Generalised Anxiety Disorder - a long-term condition in which feelings of anxiety may be generalised over multiple situations and things (money, health, work, etc.) rather than a specific stimulus (phobia).
