Assessment Strategies

Chapter 9 serves as a supplement to Chapter 4 and includes a list and brief description of available self-report measures that can help determine if the clinician and the patient are meeting the goals of exposure therapy. Consistent with the personalized approach to exposure therapy, the authors organize the list by feared cues, domains, and outcomes. Specifically, the chapter covers measures for fear of emotions and related physical sensations, fear of people, and fear of thoughts, images and trauma memories, designated by intervention targets and outcomes.
