Social anxiety disorder is a mental health condition characterized by an intense fear of social situations due to the fear of being judged, embarrassed, or humiliated. Individuals with th...

Trypophobia, characterized by a fear or aversion to clusters of small holes, is subject of both popular intrigue and scientific investigation. While it might seem trivial or peculiar, trypophobia significantly impacts a notable portion of the population. A recent paper published in Evolutionary Psychological Science examined the evolutionary underpinnings of trypophobia, offering two primary hypotheses to explain its origins: the dangerous animal hypothesis and the skin disease-avoidance hypothesis. Gaëtan Thiebaut and colleagues situate trypophobia within the broader context of evolutionary p...

People with anxiety have twice the risk of developing Parkinson’s disease compared with their non-anxious peers, according to a large new study in the United Kingdom. Researchers from University College London (UCL) used data for nearly 988,000 patients ages 50 and older from 2008 to 2018 to identify how anxiety affects Parkinson’s risk while accounting for other known factors such as age, sex, social isolation, severe mental illness, dementia, head trauma, and lifestyle. They found that patients who were diagnosed with anxiety for the first time as older adults were twice as likely to go on t...
