This thesis examined the role of parents' behaviour and cognitions in the development of childhood anxiety. In Chapter One, the literature pertinent to this research is overviewed. In Chapter Two, the age at onset and course of anxiety were systematically reviewed using the avaliable prospective studies. The findings demonstrated a high prevalence of anxiety in childhood and adolescence, and the utility of addressing these disorders in order to prevent adult anxiety.
