The Use of Song Lyrics to Alleviate a Child's Fears.
Bankart, C. Peter; Bankart, Brenda B.
Child and Family Behavior Therapy, v5 n4 p81-83 Win 1983
A two-stage intervention successfully eliminated a 9-year-old boy's intensive fear in a new school setting. First, the child learned to identify a cue accompanying strong anxiety response; second, he learned to induce a competing cognitive coping response--blocking negative feelings with confidence--reinforcing song lyrics.
