Popis: The treatment of a school phobic adolescent boy is described. Operant conditioning principles were used to increase the patient&s emotional responsiveness from an initially low level to one at which a productive behavioural analysis could be performed. Additional behaviour therapy techniques used in the treatment, including the method of graded habituation, are described.
