ARAUJO, Lívia Ferreira de; RONZANI, Telmo Mota  e  LOURENCO, Lélio Moura. Review of the literature on the comorbidity between social phobia and depression. Gerais, Rev. Interinst. Psicol. [online]. 2010, vol.3, n.2, pp.109-123. ISSN 1983-8220.

Social Phobia or social anxiety disorder is a psychiatric disorder characterized by chronicity and association with other morbidities. Depressive syndromes in many studies are cited as the most frequent comorbidities in social phobia. This study aimed to examine the articles indexed on the databases of Pubmed, Psycinfo, and LILACS in the period between 2005 and 2009, which contained descriptors related to social phobia, depression, and comorbidity between these two disorders, as well as to evaluate the bibliometric indicators of the scientific literature regarding such comorbidity between, and to discuss the qualitative aspects related to the comorbidity between these two pathologies by means of a bibliographic review. The final sample consisted of 31 articles from different countries. By means of the results of this work, it was possible to determine a significant association between social phobia and depression, contributing to the study and prevention of these two psychopathologies.
