Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Brittany Blumenthal"
- Brittany Blumenthal has focused her recent research on understanding human phobia through a novel lens by critiquing traditional models and proposing a discriminated conditioned punishment model.
- Her article, published in 2013, discusses the limitations of the signaled avoidance (SA) paradigm, which has been the standard in phobia research, suggesting it inadequately represents the complexities of phobic behavior.
- Blumenthal's work emphasizes the need for improved models that better capture the nuances of phobia, moving beyond simplistic avoidance mechanisms to consider the broader psychological and environmental factors involved.
