暴露疗法已成功地用于治疗许多疾病，但大多数都是焦虑症，如惊恐障碍伴广场恐怖症、强迫症和单纯性恐惧症。最近，这些技术在酒精领域获得了认可，基于焦虑症和成瘾性饮酒背后的学习机制在许多方面相似的假设。在文献中已经提出了有希望的证据，但通常没有充分的随访，研究也没有集中在临床试验上。因此，在治疗问题饮酒者方面，这一程序仍处于初期阶段。本文试图把焦虑和酒精领域之间的相似之处，并讨论了潜在的利用技术在酒精领域，进一步，它提出了一些关键问题，需要考虑在该地区未来的研究和治疗的实施。
Exposure therapy has been successfully used in the treatment of a number of disorders-not the kast of which are in the anxiety area, such as panic disorder with agoraphobia, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and simple phobias. More recently, these techniques have gained acceptance in the alcohol area, based on the assumption that the learning mechanisms behind both anxiety disorders and addictive drinking are similar in many ways. Promising evidence has been presented in the literature, but generally not adequately followed up, and studies have failed to concentrate on clinical trials. The procedure is thus still in its infancy with regard to the treatment of problem drinkers. The present article attempts to draw together the parallels between the anxiety and alcohol areas and discusses the potential utilisation of the technique in the alcohol field; further, it raises some key issues that need to be considered in the implementation of future research and treatment in the area.
