“…School-related fears are more frequently treated in the course of clinical therapy, which sometimes involves schools (Barrios & O'Dell, 1998). Among the clinical techniques that have shown success are those mainly based on desensitization (maintaining relaxation while thinking about phenomena that cause one's anxiety), controlled exposure to fears, observation of models interacting with anxiety-producing phenomena, reinforcement for increasing interaction with such phenomena, cognitivebehavioral techniques similar to those used with unhappiness and depression, and combinations of the aforementioned methods (Barrios & O'Dell, 1998), especially those featuring cognitive-behavioral techniques (Albano, Detweiler, & Logsdon-Conradsen, 1999;Christophersen & Mortweet, 2001;King, Tonge, Heyne, & Ollendick, 2000;Ollendick & King, 1998).…”
