Question:

A weakness of flooding?

Author: (Pippa) Pippa Holloway



Answer:

-Traumatic experience due to the unpleasent nature -Wolpe had a pateint becoming so intesntly anxious after that she required hospitalisation -Though its not unethical, since there is infomred consent from the pateint, many do not complete the treatment bc of the experience ebing too unpleasent to confromt. -High attrition (drop-out) rate for flooding, compared to SD, means that therapists shoudl avoid recommending it since time and money will be wasted for ppts that don't engage or complete their full session.
