The lifetime and current prevalence of these disorders was determined from the study population (n = 1095) and standardized to 2006 census data for Australia. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Results: Approximately one in three women (34.8%) reported a lifetime history of any mood and\/or anxiety disorder, with mood disorders (30.0%) being more prevalent than anxiety disorders (13.5%). Of these, major depression (23.4%), panic disorder (5.5%) and specific phobia (3.5%) were the most common. The lifetime prevalence of other disorders was low (\u22643%). A total of 14.4% of women were identified as having a current mood and\/or anxiety disorder, with similar rates of mood (8.9%) and anxiety disorders (8.0%) observed. The median age-of-onset for mood disorders was 27.0 years and 18.5 years for anxiety disorders. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Conclusions: This study reports the lifetime and current prevalence of mood and anxiety disorders in the Australian female population. The findings emphasize the extent of the burden of these disorders in the community. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3109\/10398561003731155","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,5,20]],"date-time":"2010-05-20T09:10:21Z","timestamp":1274346621000},"page":"250-255","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":48,"title":["The Prevalence of Mood and Anxiety Disorders in Australian Women"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Lana","family":"Williams","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Fellow, Department of Clinical and Biomedical Sciences, Barwon Health The University of Melbourne, Geelong, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Felice","family":"Jacka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Fellow, Department of Clinical and Biomedical Sciences Barwon Health, The University of Melbourne, Geelong, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Julie","family":"Pasco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Associate Professor, Department of Clinical and Biomedical Sciences, Barwon Health, The University of Melbourne, Geelong, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Margaret","family":"Henry","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Statistician, Department of Clinical and Biomedical Sciences, Barwon Health, The University of Melbourne, Geelong, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Seetal","family":"Dodd","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Senior Research Fellow Department of Clinical and Biomedical Sciences, Barwon Health, The University of Melbourne, Geelong, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Geoffrey","family":"Nicholson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Professor of Medicine, Department of Clinical and Biomedical Sciences, Barwon Health, The University of Melbourne, Geelong, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mark","family":"Kotowicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Associate Professor of Medicine, Department of Clinical and Biomedical Sciences, Barwon Health, The University of Melbourne, Geelong, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Michael","family":"Berk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Professor of Psychiatry, Department of Clinical and Biomedical Sciences, Barwon Health, The University of Melbourne, Geelong; Orygen Research Centre, Parkville; and Mental Health Research Institute, Parkville, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,6,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-10398561003731155","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archpsyc.1994.03950010008002"},{"key":"bibr2-10398561003731155","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archpsyc.62.6.593"},{"key":"bibr3-10398561003731155","first-page":"21","volume":"420","author":"Alonso J","year":"2004","journal-title":"Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica"},{"key":"bibr4-10398561003731155","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/j.1440-1614.2000.00686.x"},{"key":"bibr5-10398561003731155","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/j.1440-1614.2006.01905.x"},{"key":"bibr6-10398561003731155","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(96)07495-8"},{"key":"bibr7-10398561003731155","first-page":"168","volume":"6","author":"Kessler RC","year":"2007","journal-title":"World Psychiatry"},{"key":"bibr8-10398561003731155","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/00048670902970882"},{"key":"bibr9-10398561003731155","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.1992.03480110054033"},{"key":"bibr10-10398561003731155","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00127-004-0745-5"},{"key":"bibr11-10398561003731155","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02354307"},{"key":"bibr12-10398561003731155","unstructured":"Mathers C, Vos T, Stevenson C.
