SummaryIn an open study, ten people with phobia or panic disorder who could not travel repeatedly to a therapist accessed a computer-aided exposure self-help system (Fear Fighter) at home on the internet with brief therapist support by telephone. They improved significantly, and their outcome and satisfaction resembled those in patients with similar disorders who used Fear Fighter in clinics with brief face-to-face therapist support.

Subjects identified which of two target letters was presented when the target was accompanied by a similar or dissimilar noise letter, the target appeared on the right or left of fixation, and the target was central or peripheral to the noise letter. Although performance deteriorated in the presence of noise letters compared to control conditions, masking was no greater with similar than dissimilar noise letters. Rather masking effects were specific to particular target-mask pairs, suggesting facilitation of target perception when mask and target shared features critical to the target-discrimination task. Thus, no evidence for Estes' interactive channels model was obtained. Neither the left vs right position of the target nor its centrality had any effect on accuracy or speed. Correct latencies to a target covaried with its accuracy of detection, but incorrect latencies were more strongly associated with the target identified than with the target presented.

The current research used a quantitative single-case study design to investigate the effectiveness of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) treatment for a participant diagnosed with comorbid major depressive disorder (MDD), severe without psychotic features, and panic disorder with agoraphobia. Treatment frequency was three sessions per week, with twelve 90-minute reprocessing sessions provided over a period of 1 month; the study also evaluated this application of “concentrated EMDR.” At baseline, mean scores on the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) and Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) were 49 and 38, and at 3-month follow-up, the scores had decreased to 8 and 7 respectively. The results of this pilot study indicate that concentrated EMDR may be effective in treating comorbid MDD and panic disorder with agoraphobia. The study also evaluated the application of concentrated EMDR, with treatment frequency increased from one session to three sessions per week. Twelve 90-minute reprocessing sessions were provided over a period of 1 month. Results show the apparent effectiveness of concentrated EMDR.
