| Content | Phobias are very common anxiety disorders. The treatment of choice is confrontation with the feared stimuli or situtation. However, simulating and controlling fear-provoking situations are a challenge for therapists. And a lot of people don’t seek professional help, because they avoid any kind of confrontation. We want to investigate the use of a newly developed smartphone application to reduce the fear of spiders in participants. This would provide a user-friendly tool for self-help in subclinical phobias and additionally, can be an ad-on in clinical therapy. Work includes preparing and conducting the study as well as analysing data. Note: Low or no fear of spiders is desirable, as catching and moving spiders with a glass will be required. |
