ANSWER: COMBINATION OF PSYCHOTHERAPY AND MEDICATION.

EXPLANATION:

Paraphilia refers to the experience of intense sexual arousal elicited by an objects, behaviors, conditions, or fantasies. Thus, in the case of Lindsey, her sexual arousal is elicited by pain.

However, this disorder can be treated by using the combination of psychotherapy and medication.

The psychotherapy entails cognitive and behavioral strategies to change her thinking patterns and behaviors. It focuses on helping her identity and reorganize her behavior, and setting up techniques (such as orgasmic reconditioning), to control her sexual impulses. Other psychotherapy techniques such as covert sensitization can also be established, in other to make her fantasize about pain while feeling pain.

Secondly, Lindsey is administered with medications that suppress production of her sexual hormone, in other to reduce the frequency or intensity of her sexual desire. Thus, Drugs such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), can be giving to her. This drugs will decrease her sexual obsessiveness and also stimulate her to control her impulses. Examples of SSRI medications include paroxetine, fluoxetine, sertraline, citalopram, and etc.

The crinkling sound of the bag is the conditioned stimulus for the rabbit.

  • This is because the sound stimulates the senses of the rabbit.
  • The rabbit is unable to distinguish between the sounds of bags crinkling. Thus, it responds in the same way every single time it gets to hear a bag crinkling.

Do you think that virtual reality workouts could help people stick with working out or do you think it's a gimmick that will fad
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Honestly, I feel like it might fade away. For instance, technology is constantly developing. Maybe one day in the future, health professionals will create a better way to workout without using virtual reality. They might invent a new, better technology. We never know, but our world is always changing in all aspects.
