Abstract
The components and mechanisms underlying the development and maintenance of psychopathology are crucial to our understanding of psychology and to treatment of disorders, such as anxiety. The stress-diathesis model and its subparts are crucial to this understanding. To map already existing research on stress generation–a specific subpart of the stress-diathesis model–a scoping review will be conducted. This scoping review will specifically focus on stress generation in anxiety, due to less research being conducted for this disorder, as compared to stress generation in depression. English, peer-reviewed, and quantitative journal articles which were published on PsychInfo, PsychArticles, or the RUG Psychology and Behavioural and Social Sciences Collection databases between 1991 and 2023 will be reviewed. This will result in the inclusion of 16 studies in the analysis of the scoping review. Results will include a timeline of published articles; two tables summarising important details of each article; and a thematic analysis resulting in four main themes. The results of this scoping review seek to act as a foundation for the creation of systematic reviews or meta-analyses to accurately explore the concept of stress generation in anxiety.
