https://doi.org/10.1016/S0005-7894(72)80150-3Get rights and content

This case study describes the apparently successful treatment of an “examination phobia” with systematic desensitization. Video tape and verbal instructions were used as “advanced organizers” to prepare the patient for systematic desensitization. The patient was trained to relax with verbal instructions and electromyographic feedback training.
