Two Self-Control Procedures in the Reduction of Targeted and Nontargeted Anxieties.

Deffenbacher, Jerry L.; And Others

Journal of Counseling Psychology, v26 n2 p120-127 Mar 1979

Compared effects of relaxation as self-control and a self-control variant of systematic desensitization in reducing targeted (test anxiety) and nontargeted anxieties with those of wait-list and no-treatment expectancy controls. Groups given relaxation as self-control and modified desensitization reported less debilitating test anxiety than controls. (Author)
