  • Title: Passenger fear of flying: behavioural treatment with extensive in-vivo exposure and group support.
    Author: Roberts RJ.
    Journal: Aviat Space Environ Med; 1989 Apr; 60(4):342-8. PubMed ID: 2565108.
    Abstract:
    The techniques used in the treatment of passenger fear of flying are described. They include behaviour modification techniques (relaxation, systematic desensitization, and cognitive restructuring), an educational programme, high in-vivo exposure, and group support. Results from self-rating scales and qualitative feedback from course participants during 1979-1985, show that the collective use of these techniques contribute significantly to a reduction of fear and discomfort associated with passenger flying.
