In the present study, we examined the association between ADH dimensions (attention problems and hyperactivity/impulsivity) and anxiety subtypes (panic/agoraphobia, separation anxiety, social anxiety, physical injury fears, obsessive‐compulsive symptoms and generalised anxiety symptoms; Spence, 1997), both measured with self‐report ratings in a sample of adolescent twins and siblings. The gene discussed is AVP; the disease is agoraphobia.
