Abstract |
<p>SPECIFIC PHOBIA involves fear and avoidance of reasonably safe stimuli such as heights, closed spaces, and insects. The disorder, which is relatively common, with a lifetime prevalence of 3–15% (Eaton et al., 2018), impairs a person’s ability to function because of the avoidance involved. Specific phobias also create substantial fear, which can occur often and reduce a person’s quality of life.</p>
