Processes of fear reduction in systematic desensitization: An addendum to Wilson and Davison (1971).

Discusses recent studies in the context of G. Wilson and G. Davidson's (see record 1972-03144-001) review of fear reduction techniques. Studies pairing positive ICS with circumstances eliciting avoidance demonstrate the possibility of counterconditioning and provide an experimental basis for certain procedures of systematic desensitization.
