The answer to Question 16 is the fourth option: recurrent attacks of anxiety which occur suddenly and unexpectedly.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Hallucinations and hearing voices: This is more characteristic of certain psychotic disorders, such as schizophrenia, rather than panic disorder.

  2. Fear of going out in public: This describes agoraphobia, which can sometimes be associated with panic disorder but is not the definition of panic disorder itself.

  3. Persistent, uncontrollable thoughts: This is more indicative of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), where individuals experience intrusive thoughts and feel compelled to perform certain actions.

  4. Recurrent attacks of anxiety which occur suddenly and unexpectedly: This accurately describes panic disorder, which is characterized by sudden and intense episodes of fear or discomfort, often without a clear trigger.

In summary, panic disorder is best described by the sudden and unexpected nature of the anxiety attacks.
