Alternative academic theories[]
Attachment theory and agoraphobia[]
Some scholars (e.g., Liotti 1996 [1], Bowlby 1998 [2]) have explained agoraphobia as an attachment deficit, i.e., the temporary loss of the ability to tolerate spatial separations from a secure base.
Spatial theory and agoraphobia[]
In the social sciences there is a perceived clinical bias (e.g., Davidson 2003 [3]) in agoraphobia research. Branches of the social sciences, especially geography, have increasingly become interested in what may be thought of as a spatial phenomenon.
