Question 1
Which patient characteristic refers to being motivated in the therapeutic process?
◦ Readiness to change
◦ Functional status
◦ Level of social support
◦ Clinical expertise
Question 2
Which sequence describes the correct process of systematic desensitization?
◦ A client confronts her or his most-feared event
in vivo, then practices relaxation techniques after exposure has taken place; with a therapist's help, the client then works down from there to a resting state.
◦ A therapist instructs a client in relaxation techniques, usually in an office setting; the therapist then encounters a feared object while the client observes. Eventually the client and therapist trade places so that the client actively encounters the feared object.
◦ A therapist teaches the client relaxation skills, helps the client develop a fear hierarchy, and then has the client engage in exposure starting at the bottom of the fear hierarchy while simultaneously engaging in relaxation.
◦ A therapist constructs a fear hierarchy for a client and provides written tips for how to relax; the client then practices these techniques at home between therapy sessions.
