Abstract
Four agoraphobics were assessed repeatedly with three different cognitive measures-in vivo cognitive assessment, imaginal cognitive assessment, and thought-listing procedure-to evaluate the stability and congruence of the measures. Results showed all three measures to have an unstable course across assessment sessions. In addition, several subjects evinced marked cognitive improvement across assessments, suggesting that these measures may be "reactive" in some cases. Finally, the congruence or one-to-one correspondence between two of the cognitive measures, administered in the same situation, was only modest.
