Peer reviewedMcGlynn, F. Dudley; And Others – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 1976
Criticism of the study relating effects of therapist warmth to desensitization include: the use of surrogate, student subjects; nonstandard desensitization procedures; and no control group. Morris and Suckerman respond that the first two criticisms rely on selective reading of the literature and the third is irrelevant. (NG)

Peer reviewedWolowitz, Howard Martin – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 1975

Morris and Suckerman respond to the critique. (Author/EJT)
