Abstract
Eight subjects with severe phobias to insects and small animals had blood samples taken for measurement of prolactin concentration at regular intervals during five sessions of 3 hr duration each. Severe anxiety was induced by treating the phobia with in vivo flooding during the middle hour of the third and fourth sessions. Despite intense anxiety experienced by the subjects, they showed no change in plasma prolactin levels.
摘要
八名对昆虫和小动物有严重恐惧症的受试者，在五节时长均为3小时的疗程中，每隔一段时间采集血样以测量催乳素浓度。在第三和第四疗程的中间一小时，通过体内暴露疗法治疗恐惧症，引发了严重焦虑。尽管受试者经历了强烈的焦虑，但他们的血浆催乳素水平并未发生变化。
