متن کاملAutonomic nervous system changes associated with a spider phobic reaction.
Autonomic nervous system arousal should theoretically increase during a phobic reaction. Eleven spider phobics and 11 nonspider phobics viewed spider, seascape, and surgical slides while several physiological responses were continuously recorded. Results indicated that spider phobics showed significantly faster heart rate, greater heart rate variability, and vasoconstriction during spider slide...

متن کامل"Unconscious anxiety": phobic responses to masked stimuli.
We tested the hypothesis that an unconscious preattentive perceptual analysis of phobic stimuli is sufficient to elicit human fear responses. Selected snake- and spider-fearful Ss, as well as normal controls, were exposed to pictures of snakes, spiders, flowers, and mushrooms. A separate forced-choice recognition experiment established backward masking conditions that effectively precluded reco...

To evaluate the reliability of the information provided by the children, parents were independently interviewed about the origins of their children's phobias. While 46% of the child...
