Neutrality[edit]

Page sounds like it's been written by an enthusiast for the treatment. The word 'effective' is used throughout, but does not seem to be quantified in any way (e.g. is it even effective for the majority of cases). There's no 'criticism' section, or any kind of counter-view. 77.103.105.67 (talk) 04:52, 17 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

(Sorry I missed the figures in the 'phobia' section. I was looking at the subject from the point of view of OCD, which is often a life-long difficult to treat condition. Including figures only for the condition which it may be best at treating is still a neutrality problem though.) 77.103.105.67 (talk) 05:00, 17 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

question1[edit]

Is exposure therapy the best treatment for phobias? Is there any significant debate over this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.140.214.22 (talk) 23:18, 19 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

--- Hi. I really don't think there is any debate of this at all.

Flooding[edit]

It says flooding and exposure differ because flooding goes right to the most extreme. It sounds as if flooding and exposure are too different things, and I don't think they are. Flooding is simply a form of exposure. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.3.40.100 (talk) 16:33, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I believe flooding is simply the name given to a more intense form of exposure. Like the difference between a flood and a bath, say. JurjinTheGreat (talk) 19:52, 24 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

research content[edit]

This content added today in this diff is a) WP:SYN and b) sourced only to primary sources. We need a review that draws these connections and makes these conclusions per WP:MEDRS

Recent studies are beginning to suggest that adolescent rodents are impaired in extinction learning,[1][2][3] which corresponds to clinical evidence that adolescents show poorer outcomes following exposure therapy.[4][5]

Discussion on proposed merging ERP page to exposure therapy page[edit]

It's been suggested that the ERP page be redirected to this page, however ERP is distinct from Exposure generally and has a different theoretical basis for the response prevention. More recent research has really debunked the idea that habituation is necessary, but rather that distress tolerance and inhibitory learning be maximized. Also, ERP is often used for OCD but also employed to treat bulimia, alcohol abuse, etc. that does not fit into the general framework of exposure therapy for anxiety within this page. While I can see the case for integrating ERP into this page, it may come as the cost of making the current page unwieldy and disorganized. Let's discuss this to make a decision.

You keep making both these arguments. But you can build the content here, easily, and a) if it really sticks out like a sore thumb, and b) if this article does get too big, either of those - either of them - is a fine reason to split things back out. As it stands now, all that is at the Exposure and response prevention article is the couple of sentences that were left after I removed all of the OFFTOPIC, badly sourced, and unsourced content - the exact content that is already merged here.

Merger proposal[edit]

I propose to merge immersion therapy into exposure therapy. If someone could help that would be great!! Danski14(talk) 13:11, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Danski14: Remember to give a WP:MERGEREASON. Synonym, I suppose. Sounds reasonable. I've tagged the other page ... Klbrain (talk) 22:38, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The Immersion therapy article is hardly sourced. That unsourced stuff should not be merged here. As for redirecting that page here, editors should provide one or more academic sources for the synonymous argument. Flyer22 Frozen (talk) 06:45, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Closing, given the lack of evidence for equivalence. Klbrain (talk) 19:20, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Medical uses?[edit]

Why call it "medical" uses instead of "therapeutical" or "clinical" uses? The current title suggests that the treatment is used only by physicians. --Severian79 (talk) 16:45, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
