    Author: Ameli R, Snow J, Rakocevic G, Dalakas MC.
    Journal: Neurology; 2005 Jun 14; 64(11):1961-3. PubMed ID: 15955955.
    Abstract:
    A neuropsychological assessment was performed in 10 patients with stiff person syndrome (SPS) to determine whether their anxiety and phobic symptoms precede stiffness and spasms or represent a reaction to disability. No neurocognitive dysfunction was noted. Patients perceived fears and anxiety as realistic and caused by SPS rather than due to an inherent phobic neurosis.
