What is prolonged or intense exposure, either in real life or in imagination, to highly anxiety-evoking stimuli?

classical conditioning
Name and explain the framework upon which behavior therapy is based:
A-B-C model / Antecedent events / Consequences/ Behavior
what is an example of a procedure that is based on the classical conditioning model, in which the client is taught to relax while imagining a graded series of progressively anxiety-arousing situations?
Joseph Wolpe's systemic desensitization
a type of learning in which behaviors are influenced mainly by the consequences that follow them
operant conditioning
The term for an individual's belief or expectation that he or she can master a situation and bring about desired change.

Name the term: when a previously reinforced behavior is no longer followed by the reinforcing consequences, the result is a decrease in the frequency of the behavior in the future.
extinction
what is an operant conditioning technique in which desired behaviors earn currency that can be spent on rewards?
token economy

anger management training
what are the three steps of the desensitization process?
relaxation training (PMR), development of a graduated anxiety hierarchy, systemic desensitization while the client is deeply relaxed
What is an advantage of using imaginal flooding over in vivo flooding?
in imaginal flooding, there are no restrictions on the nature of the anxiety-arousing situations / in vivo exposure is not appropriate in all situations
What is an important question that serves as a guide for the choice of behavioral treatment?
What treatment, by whom, is the most effective for this individual with that specific problem and under which set of circumstances?
