The present study describes the successful treatment of a 9-year-old girl with trichotillomania. Intervention involved praising attractive hair and ignoring hair loss, education in hair hygiene, response prevention for night-time hair pulling, and a variable schedule of monetary rewards for criterion hair growth. Progress was assessed by counting hairs in random scalp areas and measuring bald areas. Hair growth increased from three hairs per area sampled at baseline to such dense hair growth that individual hairs could not be counted and no bald spots were noted. Results maintained at 2, 6 and 10 months follow-up.
本研究描述了对一名患有拔毛癖的9岁女孩的成功治疗。干预措施包括赞美漂亮的头发并忽视脱发情况、进行头发卫生教育、防止夜间拔毛行为以及根据头发生长情况制定可变的金钱奖励计划。通过计算随机头皮区域的头发数量和测量秃发区域来评估进展。头发生长从基线时每个采样区域三根头发增加到头发浓密到无法计数单根头发且未发现秃斑的程度。在2个月、6个月和10个月的随访中结果得以维持。
