ANS: C
Systematic desensitization is a type of therapy aimed at extinguishing a specific behavior, such as
the fear of flying. Options A and D: Psychoanalysis and short-term dynamic therapy are aimed at
uncovering conflicts. Option B: Milieu therapy involves environmental factors. None of these would
be likely to cause behavioral change in 6 weeks.
