description The present study compares male and female alcoholics with concurrent social phobia (N = 110) enrolled in an alcohol treatment study. Groups were compared using demographics, social phobia symptoms and severity, and psychiatric variables. Results showed that females reported higher fear ratings than males on some social phobia measures, although for the most part, the genders were more similar than different on social phobia symptoms and severity. There was a high occurrence of psychiatric comorbidity, especially for females. Females also reported more distress than males in family and social functioning. The results are discussed in terms of their implications for treatment for individuals with concurrent alcoholism and social phobia.
