This hypothesis was investigated by measuring panic-disordered and normal subjects' reactions to viewing a film of a potentially anxiety-provoking situation. The extent to which individuals construe film through identification with the narrative's characters was also examined. To gauge these reactions a repertory grid was administered to 11 subjects with a history of panic disorder and 12 controls after they had watched a half-hour episode from a feature film in which a divorced couple fight acrimoniously over custody of their 17-yr.-old daughter. Five elements were characters mentioned in the film and two were of \u2018self,\u2019 one in a secure and another in an insecure situation. Ten constructs were elicited by a triadic sorting procedure and four were supplied. Ratings of elements on all constructs were subjected to a principal components analysis (INGRID). While the construals of the two groups were essentially similar, there were differences between them in terms of the perceived salience of the film's characters. Panic-disordered subjects also construed themselves as more insecure than did the normals. The results affirm the use of the repertory grid in the study of panic disorder and in the analysis of the perception of filmed events.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2466\/pms.1986.63.3.1119","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,8,31]],"date-time":"2011-08-31T20:52:44Z","timestamp":1314823964000},"page":"1119-1128","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Panic-Disordered Subjects' Perceptions of Film: A Repertory Grid Study"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"63","author":[{"given":"G.
