Vanlig definisjon
Phobias have been defined as
“a special form of fear which: (1) is out of
proportion to the demands of the situation, (2)
cannot be explained or reasoned away, (3) is beyond
voluntary control, and (4) leads to avoidance of the
feared situation”
(Marks, 1969, p.3).
Further, with children one would have to add a fifth
criterion, namely, the fear is age inappropriate.

Anxiety disorders are characterized by:
a)  fear/anxiety that results in physiological changes
such as sweaty hands, dizziness, or heart palpitations
b)  the escape and/or avoidance of situations in which
fear is likely to occur, and
c)  interference by the behaviors with the individual's
life.

Diagnostic criteria for 300.29 Specific Phobia DSM IV - TR
A. Marked and persistent fear that is excessive or unreasonable, cued by the presence or
anticipation of a specific object or situation (e.g., flying, heights, animals, receiving an injection,
seeing blood). B. Exposure to the phobic stimulus almost invariably provokes an immediate anxiety response,
which may take the form of a situationally bound or situationally predisposed Panic Attack. Note: In children, the anxiety may be expressed by crying, tantrums, freezing, or clinging. C. The person recognizes that the fear is excessive or unreasonable. Note: In children, this feature
may be absent. D. The phobic situation(s) is avoided or else is endured with intense anxiety or distress. E. The avoidance, anxious anticipation, or distress in the feared situation(s) interferes significantly
with the person's normal routine, occupational (or academic) functioning, or social activities or
relationships, or there is marked distress about having the phobia. F. In individuals under age 18 years, the duration is at least 6 months. G. The anxiety, Panic Attacks, or phobic avoidance associated with the specific object or situation
are not better accounted for by another mental disorder, such as Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (e.g., fear of dirt in someone with an obsession about
contamination), Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (e.g., avoidance of stimuli associated with a severe
stressor),Separation Anxiety Disorder (e.g., avoidance of school), Social Phobia (e.g., avoidance of
social situations because of fear of embarrassment), Panic Disorder with Agoraphobia,
or Agoraphobia Without History of Panic Disorder. 02/12/14

Social phobia (social anxiety disorder)
A. A persistent fear of one or more social or performance situations in which the person is
exposed to unfamiliar people or to possible scrutiny by others. The individual fears that he or she
will act in a way (or show anxiety symptoms) that will be embarrassing and humiliating.
B. Exposure to the feared situation almost invariably provokes anxiety, which may take the form
of a situationally bound or situationally pre-disposed Panic Attack. C. The person recognizes that this fear is unreasonable or excessive.
D. The feared situations are avoided or else are endured with intense anxiety and distress.
E. The avoidance, anxious anticipation, or distress in the feared social or performance situation(s)
interferes significantly with the person's normal routine, occupational (academic) functioning, or
social activities or relationships, or there is marked distress about having the phobia.
F. The fear, anxiety, or avoidance is persistent, typically lasting 6 or more months.
G. The fear or avoidance is not due to direct physiological effects of a substance (e.g., drugs,
medications) or a general medical condition not better accounted for by another mental disorder.

Hva forårsaker fobier?
n 
Forskning antyder at både genetiske og miljømessige
faktorer bidrar til oppstarten på fobier. Spesifikke
fobier har vært assosiert med et fryktfullt førstemøte
med det fobiske objekt eller situasjon. Spørsmålet er
fremdeles om en betingingseksponering er
nødvendig eller om fobier kan utvikle seg hos
personer som er genetisk predisponert.

Hvem blir “rammet” av fobier?
n 
Angsttilstander er vanlig i alle aldre. Forekomsten av
angsttilstander av spesifikke fobier hos barn og ungdom er
estimert til 1 prosent som det laveste og 9.2 prosent som det
høyeste. Ettersom spesifikke fobier ofte starter i
barndommen, så er det viktig at de blir skilt fra normal
utviklingsmessig frykt. Sosiale fobier er estimert til å
forekomme hos opp til 1.4 prosent av barn og tenåringer.
Panikkforstyrrelser kan utvikles i enhver alder, men starter
ofte i tenårene eller i ung voksen alder. På dette området
gjenstår det mye forskning.

Subtypes of specific phobias
Description
02/12/14
Animal Type
This subtype should be specified if the fear is cued by animals
or insects. This subtype is generally a childhood onset.
Natural
Environment Type
This subtype should be specified if the fear is cued by objects
in the natural environment, such as storms, heights, or water.
This subtype is generally a childhood onset.
Blood-InjectionInjury Type
This subtype should be specified if the fear is cued by seeing
blood or an injury or by receiving an injection or other
invasive medical procedure.
Situational Type
This subtype should be specified if the fear is cued by a
specific situation such as public transportation, tunnels,
bridges, elevators, flying, driving, or enclosed places.

Frykt, fobi og angst
Frykt har har en spesifikk fokus. Den er som regel
episodisk og avtar eller opphører avhengig av om
”faren” blir fjernet eller at personen fjernes fra
”fare”.
n  Intens, men irrasjonell frykt blir betegnet som en
fobi, som for eksempel klaustrofobi (intens frykt
for lukkede rom/steder), sprøytefobi osv.
n  I sin reneste form er angst diffus, ikke relatert til
objekter, ubehagelig og vedvarende.

John B. Watson and Rosalie Rayner
published the first conditioning
experiment of emotional behavior:
“Those experiments would seem to show conclusively
that directly conditioned emotional responses as well as
those conditioned by transfer persist, although with a
certain loss in the intensity of the reaction for a longer
period than one month. Our view is that they persist and
modify personality throughout life”.
(Watson & Rayner, 1920, p.12).

“Hard-headed” vs. “Soft-hearted”.
William James (1890) suggested that psychologists could be divided
into two groups: the “hard-headed” and the “soft-hearted”. The first
group are data-oriented and highly skeptical. The “soft-hearted”, on
the other hand, are less methodologically rigorous and more
interested in thought experiments than empirically ones. Behavior
therapists have generally been thought of as being the hard-headed
type.

Importance and implications of
stimulus equivalence research
There is a rapidly growing area of research under the general heading of
stimulus equivalence that has important implications for understanding
some very basic and important issues in the fields of learning and
cognition. These include the untrained acquisition of novel stimulus
functions, symbolic behavior, the development of concepts or categories,
and the development and behavioral effects of beliefs, expectancies, and
schema. This research also has implications for understanding the
development and treatment of several clinical disorders including
substance abuse, anxiety disorders, and depression.

On the basis of what we know from the
implications of research on equivalence and
transfer of functions:
”A step back to the lab and basic science could be one of the most
exciting steps forward for our field because such a step seeks to
reestablish the link between basic science and clinical interventions
– a hallmark of good behavior therapy, past and present.”

Conclusion
The procedure was shown to be effective in reducing phobic
reactions in the presence of dogs and cats. The results showed
that training with three exemplars of both dogs and cats,
respectively, were needed to obtain generalization effects to
novel exemplars. Furthermore, the treatment of phobic
reactions to one category of animals had effects across animals.
The phobic reactions did not occur during long-term follow-up
probes conducted 72 months after the completion of the
intervention.
