Question

A person being treated for agoraphobia is gradually learning to leave home and to enter crowded public places. Additionally, the therapist hopes that "outside world" experiences will become more rewarding for the person. The treatment described BEST reflects what theoretical orientation?

Answer 1

Answer:

Behavioral.

Explanation:

Theoretical orientation may be defined as the important factor for both the counselor as well as for the client. Different individuals require different therapy depending on the individual situation.

The theoretical orientation includes the behavioral orientation as well. The behavioral orientation is one of the approach used in the sport psychology that believes that environment and outside world acts as the determinant of the behavior and especially comes from the outside world experience. The outside world experience can be beneficial in the treatment of agoraphobia ( fear from a situation).

Thus, the answer is behavioral.
