question 10
which description best describes exposure therapy?
during role play with the therapist, the therapist models positive behavior during stressful events.
the patient is exposed to electrical current via an electromagnetic coil placed on or above the head.
a client directly confronts the situation that causes dread and remains in the situation until the fear subsides.
the therapist intentionally frustrates the patient by exposing errors in logic and contradictions in reasoning.

Explanation:

Exposure therapy is a psychological treatment where a client is made to face the feared - situation directly to reduce fear. The first option describes modeling, the second is related to a different type of treatment (transcranial magnetic stimulation), and the fourth is more related to cognitive - behavioral techniques of challenging thoughts rather than exposure.

Answer:

A client directly confronts the situation that causes dread and remains in the situation until the fear subsides.
