This project uses extinction of fear in rats to model means to control human fear. Its aims are to determine why patients must be exposed to trauma-related cues to learn to control their fear and when knowledge about the current relation between the cues and the trauma is sufficient for patients to overcome the fear normally elicited by trauma-related cues.

这个项目用老鼠的恐惧消退来模拟控制人类恐惧的手段。其目的是确定为什么患者必须暴露在创伤相关线索中以学会控制他们的恐惧，以及何时关于线索与创伤之间当前关系的知识足以使患者克服通常由创伤相关线索引起的恐惧。
