The ability to interpret potential threats and react immediately is an essential evolutionary construct. One of the most important mechanisms for recognizing potential danger is fear generalization: the ability to apply an untrained response to various, similar stimuli. Inventions for overcoming fear generalization are essential to creating treatments for fear and anxiety-associated psychological disorders; however, as Dunsmoor and Murphy illustrate in their article, the Pavlovian-conditioning…

etiological issues and target early, effective interventions. (Luxenberg et al., 2001) Complex PTSD is a less event-specific victimization syndrome suggested by Herman (1992) and this syndrome is also referred to as DESNOS (Pelcovitz et al., 1997) when certain specific quasi-diagnostic criteria are met. A central contribution of these syndrome designations has been their emphasis on the potential complexity of post victimization responses, suggesting that the effects of rape, for example, may…

turn out to be diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder based on the extent of their symptoms. People may also predict outcomes of circumstances to be disastrous and not having the best potential for positive control. People need to learn to change cognitive distortions and have thoughts that allow the potential for positivity in different areas of life. Work, family functioning, finances, and leisure are all impacted by the way we perceive future outcomes. Worry can also impact the way…

life. Epidemiological studies indicate that most adults and children will experience at least one potentially traumatic event in their life (Mancini & Bonanno, 2010). When these events occur, individuals respond in a variety of ways. Further implications highlight the need for additional research focusing on measuring individual differences in people’s responses to the traumatic event (Mancini & Bonnano, 2010). Trauma is a widely defined topic in psychopathology that has been studied in many…
