Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
The Panic Disorder Severity Scale
The Panic Disorder Severity Scale consists of 7 items, each rated on a 5-point scale that assesses panic frequency, distress during panic, panic-focused anticipatory anxiety, phobic avoidance of situations, phobic avoidance of physical sensations, impairment in work functioning, and impairment in social functioning
Secondary Outcome Measures
The heart rate variability
The heart rate variability is the physiological recordings of the variation in the time interval between consecutive heartbeats in milliseconds
The Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression
The Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression is a depression assessment scale and contains 17 items pertaining to symptoms of depression experienced over the past week
The State and Trait Anxiety questionnaire
The State and Trait Anxiety questionnaire is has 20 items for assessing trait anxiety and 20 for state anxiety
The Korean Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology
The Korean Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology is a self-report questionnaire that comprises symptoms of depression including melancholic, atypical and anxious symptoms
The Perceived Stress Scale
The Perceived Stress Scale is is a measure of the degree to which situations in one's life are appraised as stressful
The Albany Panic and Phobia Questionnaire

The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale
The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale is a 14-item scale that has anxiety and depression subscales;
The Body Sensations Questionnaire
