abstract="The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and correlates of social phobia in the rural population of Udmurtia. A sample of 855 adult inhabitants in rural Udmurtia was interviewed, using a structured diagnostic interview (CIDI). Social phobia affected 45.6% of the population on the basis of ICD-10 and 52.7% on the basis of DSM-III-R during their lifetime. Social phobia was more prevalent in women (51.8%) than in men (37.5%) and in ethnic Udmurts (52.0%) than in Russians (33.3%). No associations with age, marital status, or educational level were found. Social phobia had a high comorbidity with depression in Udmurt men and women and with alcohol dependence in Udmurt men. The results show significant association between social phobia and suicide attempts in men, with a lifetime rate of attempted suicide of 9.4%.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
