  • List of Phobias and Simple Cures.Pdf
    Phobia This article is about the clinical psychology. For other uses, see Phobia (disambiguation). A phobia (from the Greek: φόβος, Phóbos, meaning "fear" or "morbid fear") is, when used in the context of clinical psychology, a type of anxiety disorder, usually defined as a persistent fear of an object or situation in which the sufferer commits to great lengths in avoiding, typically disproportional to the actual danger posed, often being recognized as irrational. In the event the phobia cannot be avoided entirely the sufferer will endure the situation or object with marked distress and significant interference in social or occupational activities.[1] The terms distress and impairment as defined by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition (DSM-IV-TR) should also take into account the context of the sufferer's environment if attempting a diagnosis. The DSM-IV-TR states that if a phobic stimulus, whether it be an object or a social situation, is absent entirely in an environment - a diagnosis cannot be made. An example of this situation would be an individual who has a fear of mice (Suriphobia) but lives in an area devoid of mice. Even though the concept of mice causes marked distress and impairment within the individual, because the individual does not encounter mice in the environment no actual distress or impairment is ever experienced. Proximity and the degree to which escape from the phobic stimulus should also be considered. As the sufferer approaches a phobic stimulus, anxiety levels increase (e.g. as one gets closer to a snake, fear increases in ophidiophobia), and the degree to which escape of the phobic stimulus is limited and has the effect of varying the intensity of fear in instances such as riding an elevator (e.g.

  • Auditory Disabilities
    DESCRIPTION OF AUDITORY DISABILITIES OVERVIEW For humans the primary, though not the only, use of the sense of hearing is in social communications.For this reason we focus primarily on the impact of hearing difficulties on language acquisition and development and social communications. Although a delay in language acquisition does not necessarily lead to grave consequences, age-appropriate verbal communications with adults and peers also promotes the development of general cognitive and social skills, so any language delays can impair other skills too, even those not directly linked to hearing. In addition, problems with language acquisition can be indicative of more serious developmental issues such specific language impairment, dyslexia or autism spectrum disorder. Therefore, early diagnosis of hearing impairment is important and has given rise in many countries to neonate hearing screening programmes. In considering auditory disabilities we distinguish between afferent problems that relate primarily to mechanistic audibility; i.e. whether and to what extent the acoustic signal is received and processed within the cochlea and correctly transmitted to the rest of the auditory system via the auditory nerve, and integrative problems that apply to the perception of complex sounds in general. In the next section problems relating specifically to language impairment will be discussed. The auditory system is rather different to the visual system in that a great deal more processing occurs before the signal reaches the cortex. In addition, there are no good animal models of auditory cortical processing due to the huge expansion of communication sounds in humans. Consequently rather less is understood about the cortical processing and representation of sounds than visual images.
