Hi Scott. Thanks for your reply. There are a number of research articles on this topic inc Stein 96, Liebowitz 97, Kraaimaat 02, and Menzies 08. Suspending the DSM IV exclusion criteria the figures given range from 50 to 75%. (40% if the exclusion criteria is not suspended). However I was wondering what was the panel's experience? Of course it could be argued you would know if you used a screen for Social Phobia. One of the most commonly used is the Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale (this may have been the one Barbara was referring to. I remember Scott Yaruss told me he uses this as well.). SPIN is another one mentioned by Larry Molt in his 2003? online conference paper.
