Answer to Question 1

D
For simple phobias the evidence strongly supports the effectiveness of exposure therapy. This form of therapy exposes the person experiencing phobia to the inciting factor under supervised conditions. The exposure is conducted under supervision of a trained therapist.

Answer to Question 2

C
Research reviews indicated that drumming enhances recovery through inducing relaxation and enhancing theta-wave production of brain-wave synchronization. Drumming was experienced as pleasurable and as a technique that enhanced awareness of preconscious dynamics. Drumming also created a sense of connectedness, alleviating self-centeredness and isolation.
