Fear of Heights Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effects of in Vivo Exposure Therapy on the Neural Correlates of Height Phobia: a Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study Using a Fear Provocation Paradigm.
We are interested in investigating the functional brain abnormalities of height phobia. Subjects will be have a functional MRI scan before and after a course of treatment with behavioral therapy.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of in vivo exposure therapy on the functional brain activity of subjects with height phobia using a fear provocation paradigm. We expect differential activation of the fear circuitry in height phobics compared to non-phobic controls, and that successful behavioral therapy will normalize the heightened fear response in height phobia. ;
