- Experimental psychopathologists have used cognitive psychology paradigms to elucidate information-processing biases in the anxiety disorders.

A memory bias favoring recall of threatening information occurs in panic disorder, but rarely in other anxiety disorders. New treatments involving the experimental modification of cognitive biases are promising.
