[HTML][HTML] Safety behaviors toward innocuous stimuli can maintain or increase threat beliefs
EAM van Dis, AM Krypotos… - Behaviour research and …, 2022 - Elsevier
Safety behaviors can prevent or minimize a feared outcome. However, in relatively safe
situations, they may be less adaptive, presumably because people will misattribute safety to …

Low perceived self-efficacy impedes discriminative fear learning
Perceived self-efficacy refers to a subject's expectation about the outcomes his/her behavior
will have in a challenging situation. Low self-efficacy has been implicated in the origins and …
