Some evidence exists of disturbances of the CCK system in pathological anxiety. For instance, Lydiard and co-workers [1992] reported that patients with panic disorder have significantly lower cerebrospinal fluid concentrations of CCK-8S than do control subjects. The same group measured CCK-8S in patients with bulimia nervosa [Lydiard et al. 1993], who were found to have significantly lower levels of CCK-8 than the comparison subjects. CCK-8 concentrations were inversely correlated with scores on the anger-hostility, anxiety, and interpersonal sensitivity subscales of the Symptom Checklist-90—Revised [SCL-90-R]. 

Symptom Checklist-90-Revised (SCL-90-R). The SCU-90-R is a 90-item, self-administered, inventory developed by Derogatis in 1977 and is derived from the Hopkins Symptom Checklist (17). The inventory was developed to screen for psychopathology and assesses symptomatic distress in nine primary dimensions and three global indices of distress. The dimensions include somatization, obsessive-compulsive features, interpersonal sensitivity, depression, anxiety, hostility, phobic anxiety, paranoid ideation, and psychoti-cism. The measure takes 15 to 20 minutes to complete. It has been used widely with community adolescents and adults, inpatients, and outpatients. It has been shown to have good reliability and validity (18).
