  • Title: Role-reversed systematic desensitization in the treatment of a writing phobia.
    Author: Johnson CH, Shenoy RS, Gilmore JD.
    Journal: Percept Mot Skills; 1982 Aug; 55(1):255-9. PubMed ID: 6127664.
    Abstract:
    A role-reversal technique was employed to teach cognitive coping skills to a patient with a writing phobia. The patient presented desensitization scenes to the therapist and devised coping strategies for lessening anxiety. Treatment resulted in a reduction of anxiety and an increased ability to write in the presence of other people. A 10-mo. follow-up showed no relapse.
