EVALUATION of treatment for phobia- systematic glooding is more pleasurable exericne as they limit their anxiety slowly, however it is a slower process that requires more sessions. flooding can also be dangerous especially for older people - both SD and flooding are more effective in treating specific phobias than social phobias - research support found that 83% of ppts treated with VR exposure to spiders improved compared to none in the control group. this suggests SD are valid

floodinginvolves immediate and full exposure to MAX level of phobic stimulus. causes temporary panic to client but the clinical will keep the client in the situation until temporary panic has stopped and client is calm.

negative evaluation for behaviorist explanation of phobia- does not account for cognitive aspects of phobia. the model only handles the behavioral characteristics of phobia. for example two process model does not account for irrational beliefs that come with phobia
Phobia definitionan irrational fear of an object or situation
behavioral characteristics of phobia- avoidance : physically adapting normal behavior to avoid phobic objects - panic : an uncontrollable physical response (e.g screaming, running) - endurance : when person chooses to remain in the presence of the phobic stimulus
emotional characteristics of phobia- anxiety : an uncomfortably high and persistent state of arousal - fear : intense emotional sensation of extreme and unpleasant alertness. it only subsidies when the phobic object is removed
cognitive characteristics of phobiairrational thoughts : negative and irrational mental processes that include an exaggerates belief in the harm the phobic object could cause cognitive distortion : perceptions of a person with phobia may be inaccurate and unrealistic.
what approaches explains phobiasthe behaviorist approach
what model demonstrates how phobias- the two process model that suggests that phobias are acquired by classical conditioning and then continue because of operant conditioning
the two process modelacquisition : classical conditioning suggests that phobic object changes from being a neural stimulus with no fear stimulus that naturally causes a fear response by being presented at the same time as an unconditioned stimulus that naturally causes a fear response- thus forming an association maintenance : operant conditioning suggests avoidance behaviour leads to a reduction in anxiety which is a pleasant sensation - this is a negative reinforcement strengthens phobic response.
positive evaluation of the behaviorist approach for explaining phobias- real world application : can be applied to therapies like systematic desensitization and flooding. which have proven to be effective - the little albert study illustrates how bad experiences can lead to phobias being formed. this confirms the suggestion provided by the two process model.

behavioral approach to treating phobiassystematic desensitization and flooding
systematic desensitizationtherapist first teaches relaxation techniques like breathing exercises, then progresses through an anxiety hierarchy created by the client and therapist from least feared presentation to most. gradual exposure leads to extinction of fear association and a new association with relaxation formed
