Question:

A strength of the behavioural explanation of phobias?

Author: (Pippa) Pippa Holloway



Answer:

-Watson and Ryner, demonstrated classical conditioning with a formation of a phobia with a rat when paired with a loud noise to make a conditioned reaction -Supports the idea of the 2 process model, it will form a phobia as well as generlisation occuring with stimulus phobic stimulus -Results are hard to generlise though due to the case study, possibly unique behaviours. Need to apply with caution.
