Why the study?
Right frontal EEG asymmetry is a common neurophysiological marker of anxiety and depressive symptoms throughout development, prompting examination of frontal and parietal asymmetry measures as markers for specific childhood anxiety disorder subtypes.
Do specific EEG asymmetry characteristics correlate with distinct childhood anxiety subtypes?
Population
Children evaluated for childhood anxiety disorder subtypes
Comparison

May inform pediatric anxiety subtyping via EEG; extends asymmetry markers but leaves open causal and clinical utility.
Do specific EEG asymmetry characteristics correlate with distinct childhood anxiety subtypes?
Rightward shifts in EEG asymmetry serve as key neurophysiological markers for specific childhood anxiety subtypes, potentially aiding in understanding mechanisms and customizing treatments.
Shanok et al. (2023) studied this question.
