Exposure therapy is a widely used and effective form of treatment in anxiety disorders and addictions but evidence for its usefulness in eating disorders (ED) is inconsistent. This paper systematically reviews the literature on the use of exposure therapy in ED, the theory underpinning its use, and the deficits in current knowledge. Databases were searched to 2012. In addition, potential improvements in the use of exposure techniques in ED are considered by drawing upon theory and research involving neuropharmacology, basic and clinical neuroscience, contemporary behavioural and neurobiological research, and technologies such as virtual reality (VR).
暴露疗法是一种在焦虑障碍和成瘾治疗中广泛使用且有效的方法,但在饮食障碍(ED)中的应用效果证据并不一致。本文系统地回顾了 ED 中暴露疗法的应用、其应用的理论基础以及目前知识的不足。检索数据库的时间截至 2012 年。此外,通过借鉴神经药理学、基础和临床神经科学、当代行为和神经生物学研究以及虚拟现实(VR)等技术的理论和研究,考虑了在 ED 中使用暴露技术的潜在改进。
