The authors contacted 43 patients who had been given audiovisual treatment for flight phobia 3 1/2--5 1/2 years previously. Of the 26 subjects who had flown successfully by the end of treatment, 23 had maintained their ability to fly at follow-up. Eighteen said their attitude toward flying was more positive since treatment, and 21 rated their comfort level while flying as "much better" or "better"; however, only 3 said they were "cured." Eleven patients said the treatment had helped to alleviate other fears or anxieties.
作者联系了43名患者，这些患者在3年半至5年半之前接受过针对飞行恐惧症的视听治疗。在治疗结束时已成功乘坐过飞机的26名受试者中，有23人在随访时仍保持飞行能力。18人表示自治疗后他们对飞行的态度更为积极，21人将飞行时的舒适程度评为“好多了”或“有所改善”；然而，只有3人表示自己“已治愈”。11名患者表示该治疗有助于减轻其他恐惧或焦虑。
