Study Notes

- Recognition, in the context of fear, usually refers to identifying the source or trigger of the fear, not a theory of controlling all fears.
- Rational impulse theory is not a commonly recognized or established theory related to fear control.
- Acceptance, often part of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), involves acknowledging and accepting fears without trying to control them directly. It suggests that trying to control all fears is not only impossible but can also be counterproductive. ACT aims to change the relationship with fear, rather than eliminating it.
