Abstract

In a single case study, the psychophysiological process of change was studied during treatment of fainting with exposure to blood/injury stimuli. Therapy involved two procedures: a muscle-tensing maneuver and a cognitive coping strategy, each applied in A-B-A format. During therapy, bradycardia was associated with reports of greater fear. Muscle tensing brought higher heart rate and lower fear ratings. In contrast, the cognitive strategy produced lower fear ratings without affecting heart rate. At termination and at 6- and 30-month follow-up, the patient reported problem-free exposure to injury stimuli. Results supported the efficacy of the treatment approach, differentiated the effects of separate components of the intervention, and clarified its physiological basis.

  • Studies have generally focused on respiration rate rather than full assessment of breathing pattern including volume or direct measures of expired CO2, so true hyperventilatory states may have been overlooked in most of these studies.

    “However, studies have generally focused on respiration rate, such as through the measurement with a single strain gauge (e.g., Kozak & Miller, 1985; Steptoe & Wardle, 1988; Vögele et al., 2003) or visual observation of breathing (e.g., Cohn et al., 1976), rather than implementing a full assessment of the breathing pattern including volume or direct measures of expired CO2. Thus, true hyperventilAT”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
