To evaluate the therapeutic importance of the discussion component of the induced-anxiety technique, 32 college coeds scoting ≥ 15 on the test anxiety subtest of the Sarason Autobiographical Survey were given one of four treatments. Eight subjects were given 8 weekly traditional induced-anxiety sessions, 8 were given 8 induced-anxiety sessions without the discussion component, 8 were given 8 treatments including only the discussion component, and 8 served as nontreated controls. Subjects receiving the induced-anxiety treatments, either with or without the discussion, showed significant decreases in test anxiety
